To be honest, all his other mods alone without the blower wouldn't stack a ton of power on the car. The clutch/flywheel really act more in support of the extra power from the JRSC, and the other bolt-ons are probably only good for a few extra ponies (10 maybe? people argue this all the time... I still don't know how much power i/h/e adds, but I know it helps especially when utilizing FI)

Anyway, my point is, the guy who posted 13.66 had no other "internal" mods... no cams, head-work, bottom-end, etc. I think it shows a really good idea of the kind of performance you can expect from a JRSC with a little extra tweaking in other areas of the engine.

By the way, I WANT ONE! hehe

I agree and would say that the headers on the market would probably yield more power then on a NA car, but since you are FI, I think something custom with larger merges would yield a good deal more power. As billy and a couple others have said in the past the mugen and dc sports headers still have fairly small merges from the 4-2 and 2-1 for highly modified engines that would benefit from more flow.
