It's definitely a huge difference as an example my 60-130 acceleration time with two 0.5 second shifts with the supercharger is 10.5 seconds. But on this particular track it's more about your minimum corner speeds, if you keep them up you can even negate much of another cars hp advantage. My friend drives a S2000 with coilovers, and NT01's and runs it in the 1:22's with stock power. I'ts maybe a 1.5 second gain per lap b/c you can only use so much of the extra power. My minimum speeds where often times 5-10 mph faster than the other cars , start off at 90 mph vs others being at 80 in the corner before the straight and throw in the hp of the supercharger and you get teleportation lol.
