Default Vortech S/C question

Does anyone happen to have any performance data regarding the Vortech S/C aftercooled kit for 99+ Civic SI's? I've seen enough horsepower claims but was more interested in track numbers as opposed to dyno figures. Any input will be appreciated gentlemen. Thanx.

I'd say at least .5 sec slower et than a turbo car with the same peak power. Centrifugal blowers don't make any midrange power!

It's just the intrigue of doing something a bit different from the rest that interests me. However, if I was looking for ultimate output, I would definitely go turbo.
