It is actually completely streetable. If I can take it easy on the go pedal then it actually gets pretty good mileage. The last engine was about 1000 at the crank and I could still get 16MPG on the freeway. The nice thing about the setup is that when not in boost you dont even know what it is able to do. The COG rear drive on the blower makes it sound like and old school blower.

Here are some videos with the last engine just playing around on the street a little. I have to roll into the throttle to maintain traction even with the big drag radials I have on it.
