Forced induction has come a long way since the 1980s. The drivability issues you pointed to have been pretty well addressed in the last 30 years of advancement in regards to F/I engines. One the other side of the coin, if/when GM makes a SB OHV V8 that revs to 9k and decides to stick it in the Camaro, I won't mention F/I ever again.
