Oh, I'll punch! I guess I'm the only one who can make comments regarding the dyno differences. 
I want to say the Lovefab was somewhere between 6.5 and 7. The Comptech is around 6.5 I believe.
Average Torque Increases Across the Powerband:
Comptech 28
Lovefab 72
BRP 69
Average Power Increases Across the Powerband:
Comptech 35
Lovefab 79
BRP 74

Definitely hit me up. I've never had a ride in one. I did test drive InlinePro's detuned 450 rwhp turbo car. Brutal, I tell ya...
I'm not stock sc'd.

The only other thing I'd mention here is that these graphs start at 3000 RPM. The BRP SC has quite an advantage over any other form of FI in the low-end, and these graphs don't really show that.

What's the Average Price Increase across the wallet?
The BRP would win hands down in results per dollar though. There I said it.
It provides near Lovefab thrills for 1500 less. It provides 200% of what the Comptech provides (averaging across the powerband) for less than a 50% increase in price.Of course, all three kits are fantastic options for our cars and I would love to have any one of them on mine.

By most rights, the BRP blower would have the best throttle response as well, since the supercharger is (almost) always making positive pressure, as opposed to a turbo system's throttle->power->exhaust->inducer->compressor->boost feedback loop.
Lovefab pros: big power is possible, quiet sound if you want it, AEM EMS engine management
Lovefab cons: slightly less throttle response, less low-end torque, a bit more pricey
BRP pros: throttle response, table-flat torque curve, price
BRP cons: supercharger whine (could be a pro for some of you), no standalone engine management
