Haha - that's pretty cool, but anything can make more power than anything if you're willing to put in the money / work!

I had an '05 S2000 with a Comptech supercharger. Running the standard pulley, it made 290rwhp. It pulled a lot harder than stock, but only above 5k rpm. Still, it was nowhere near as quick as the C63.

From the experience with my S2000 build, the centrifugal supercharger doesn't really help low-end torque. If anything, the blower's parasitic drag makes the motor feel less responsive at lower rpm. It's only when the thing gets into VTEC that blower and motor both get serious about making power. My car was still a slug with the gas pedal pinned at 2500rpm.
