Question Popcharger sound

Do they add a high pitch whistling noise kinda similar to a turbo when you install them ?

Well, I know the JWT pop charger sounds like a turbo spooling up when your WOT passed 3500rpms. However its not that loud, and your not going to fool anyone it thats what your looking for

Are you more interested in the sound or the performance enhancement that it brings? For me, it's just sweeeet music to my ears when I'm @ WOT! No wonder my MPG is only around 21mpg!!!

Are you referring to the Obayashi? If so, I believe it is turbo'd

Are you talking about the high-pitched squeel (for example) from 8-22 seconds? If so, I believe that is from being on the dyno.

The dyno is making the whistling sound, not the car.
