The pulley on the blower looks to me like the type of magnetic cluch you find on an A/C compressor. Anyone see what I mean?

No; the point is, to provide low-down torque and lag free pick-up whilst allowing large turbochargers.

Look at the way the SC is running, its pointless IMVHO. The turbos can probably spool up much sooner if the SC was not in the way - they are not going to be spooling up till 5kpm and peak boost is going to be sometime after that, kind of defeats the object I think.
