Rob, you can pretty much count on about .8 to 1 second faster times in 100 over the other suits such as LZR & B70. I know Chris will jump all over me for saying this without valid research and I agree...however in talking to some people who aare at the meet competing and looking at previous best times its pretty consistent.
When Lezak went 47.8 at Mission awwhile back he was nowhere near peak form but the suit helped out that much.
Brunelli got his the day before he left for the meet, warmed up about 300 yards and popped a 19.3 in a 50...and his times at them meet (lifetime bests)were right in the same range of about .5 in his 50 and 1 second in his 100 and like Lezak he is not in his best shape right now.
Loved to see Phelps & Lochte wearing "old" LZR's and Piersol with leggings!
