Default Amuse sound w/ supercharger

I was wondering...does anyone know what an Amuse exhuast w/ a vortech supercharger sounds like? Does the supercharger change the sound a lot?

Or if not...what does the vortech do to your exhaust sound (other than the jet-like noise)?

I am wondering because I love the sound of the Amuse and I'm about to get one, but performance (ie supercharger) takes priority...if the sound gets changed significantly then I might as well just get a less expensive exhaust like JIC or Tanabe....

Any thoughts out there?

I would imagine that it would amplify it. The supercharger will only be making a more vigorous combustion and therefore perhaps a bit louder exhaust note. As it isn't attached to the exhaust like a turbo, it shouldn't affect it's note. But i don't have personal experience with it. Just my .02

Supercharger gives it more rasp.

Rasp is detrimental to performance

the exhaust gasses coming out of the engine is what makes the sound, so basically it will still sound like an amuse exhaust, just will have the S/C whine and intake sound tossed into the mix as well
