Not sure I follow here. Have you driven a VF or ESS supercharged car? Centrifugal superchargers do not "dump into boost land" and do not experience any spike in power. They build boost/power very gradually by design. What you are describing is a big turbo with lag, which is nothing at all like what you get from an ESS/VF kit. Centrifugal kits maintain the exact same linear power delivery characteristics of a stock S65.
