I posted this in the HUGE ATI thread but it's on page 20 already so I figured I would start a new thread. This short vid is of Mike pulling into the parking lot. You can hear the SC and the mufflerless exhaust...sounds pretty mean Enjoy!

Procharger vid (right click, save as)

 

Man I love that sound.

 

Not very stealthy.......... I think I would prefer something a bit quieter. Walk softly, but carry a big stick!

 

i would agree, it sounds like the car is winding up. i think i would rather here "Shhhhtt" everytime i shift.

 

Damn, that is loud!! I thought theres was a Mack truck in the video, and all of a sudden the Z shows up. Maybe it sounds cool in person though. Got mixed feelings about it now. Imagine that sound echoing in my garage, lol. Well, as long as it's putting some nice power down, I could prob live with it.

Thans for the vid.

 

Thanks Spencer.......i love the sound........it's like a jet on wheels.

 

That really sounds like "I'll eat you alive".

 

i love it......

 

AWESOME! Anyone have a video with it "under acceleration"?

 

Ditto

 

Me too. I guess I'll wait and see what Greddy or PE TT sounds like. I did expect some whine on the Z with the S/C but, that was a little too much for me. Then again it could be the vid but, I'm not going to put down 5k just to find out that it's not the vid.

 

I'm sure the Vortech Supercharger kit will come with a SQ head unit. It should be quiet.

 

...that's it? more, please....

 

Yea, that noise is making me rethink some things. Hell, I was not that thrilled with this to begin with, but now I am much more skeptical. I have heard that the loud, constant whine does go away after 500 miles or so, but I have not heard confirmation of that. Of course a SC will whine when it is spooling, but I have heard complaints of a constant whine all the time. I too woudl prefer the "SSSHHHT" when I shift, but not for $8000 installed.

 

makes it sound like a really loud electric car

 

haha its kurazy.. sounds like a mini jet or something.. im not sure if the sound of it would sway my decision but.. its pretty loud! thnx for the clip

 

...A force to be reckoned with.....

I guess I'm one the few that likes blower whine. Please post some accerlation runs and some WOT action.

 

OC...I actually love that sound. It's weird because everyone says my ride sounds like a Jet. And when ever your at the track it seems like everyone just talks about how they love the sound. I guess it's a racer thing or something.

 

sounds a bit like the old V1 vortech cricket.. the Stillen unit is much more high-pitched.. more jet like

 

I'm suprised you can here it so much at low rpms. I haven't been following the supercharger threads that much, so these might be stupid questions or comments.

The car wouldn't be under boost in the video, correct? maybe its more like a whistle? some whistle under vacuum.

If you think that is loud, it should get much much louder under heavy acceleration.

Superchargers are undoubtably very cool and do sound extremely badass in person. Everyone's reaction is like...holy**** what the **** is that. I have some experience with this. I installed a Jackson Racing supercharger on my 01 Prelude last summer. It was the cooolest car I ever drove. I was making about 235 at the wheels. It would whistle some when just cruising around. When you hit half throttle it would start to boost and it sounded absolutely amazing. I don't think this supercharger would disappoint anyone.
