I just got back home from getting the Roush/FRPP blower installed last night. It was late and I'm still a little sick so I was pretty easy on it on the way home but I got into boost a few times none the less 
The guys over at Brenspeed in Dallas were a blast to deal with and I highly recommend them. Now on to the good stuff.
I had them do a quick dyno pull before they did anything and it was putting down 370/345(68.05 F, 29.43", 27%) which wasn't too bad. Not the happiest dyno but I wasn't really concerned about the numbers being a little low since they didn't have any fans blowing and it was like I said just one pull.
Post install the dyno gave me 549/484(64.99 F, 29.40", 22%) on the first pull and then 526/482 on the second. Obviously the lack of fan was hurting the second pull and very possibly hurt the first pull a little but the numbers were all solid enough to be performing properly so I didn't care. It was already late and I still had a 3 hour drive to houston ahead of me.
Overall gains of 180 HP and 140 ft-lbs were very satisfying for me I do have the dyno printout so you guys can see the curves that I will add on here soon and I have a good camera that I can use to get some engine bay shots as well. It might take me a little while though since I'm still trying to beat off this cold but I will get them posted.
*edit*
My initial thoughts/impressions:
Disclaimer: I have never had a supercharged car before so these are all from fresh eyes.
The car is every bit as drivable as before and I don't feel any sort of apprehension about increasing my horsepower by 50%. The car feels very capable of dealing with the increased hp/tq.
The nanny seems to kick in a lot more. I am going to do some testing but it seems like WOT=Nanny. I usually drive in sport mode so I am going to try track mode and all off to see the differences.
That blower whine is absolutely addicting... I may find myself muting the radio before I lay the hammer down.
