Coming from a realistic angle on this, having a 10psi boosted frs, I can reliably tell you guys that you're just gonna end up chasing the boost. I don't mean to sound critical, but you're realistically just going to end up being unsatisfied and buying a real kit anyway.
I'm just trying to save you all some money.
less cost? ease of install? less engine strain? no parasitic loss so lower boost goes a longer ways. being able to control when/if boost is being applied to help with gas mileage.

Yes, the current options available are intriguing but like i said either need a slightly lower price point or slightly greater boost potential, at the moment a traditional turbo/supercharger does seem to be a better option.

But i think this thread was started to discuss the potential beneficial applications like using in conjunction with turbos to eliminate turbo lag, or what the systems could potentially be in 5-10 years with newer technologies.
