You are correct. The system for my engine is pretty well at its limits. Spinning it fast does bring in more boost quicker, but the intake temps really jump calling for Methanol injection to help cool not only the air but the supercharger itself. The wildest set up I seen was a car like mine that that an over boost pulley Methanol injection and twin rear mount turbos that pushed more air into the supercharger. The car dynoed at 650/600 at the rear wheels.
