There's a lot more appeals to the Innovate kit other than the power. Some are ok with 220-250whp and for that I think the Innovate is a really good choice.

Of course a turbo is always going to make more power than a supercharger... but there's benefits to a supercharger approach the turbo doesn't have.

I'm interested in both kits, and completely agree that the AVO outperforms the Innovate based on everything I've seen. But dyno doesn't tell all the story. I'm still waiting on temp readings from both kits, need to try out AVO as I need to make sure the throttle & boost response is good enough, and the fact that I'd have to disassemble it every 2 years for the smog nazis is kind of annoying. Not to mention the Innovate is a bolt on kit, with very little parts other than just the Supercharger. So, there's benefits to both. Not everybody is worried about 100% performance.
