You won't notice an impact on the quickness of revving through the power band. What you will notice is that the RPMs jump from mid-range to redline VERY quickly. Lower down in the RPM range, you won't experience lag, but you will feel a very slight 'bog'. At least, this was my experience with the Vortech blower. With the roots type blowers, I notice zero lag and no real difference in RPM building even up top.
