lol... i love it....^

Thanks for the vid's Sam... really can't wait to see some results...sounds awfully quiet to me, but it appears like that's what everyone on here seems to like... or a majority of you guys at least... I personally wish that thing was screamin' lol, but thats just me I guess after reading all of your guys responses... Nice work thus far GTM

I do like it but personally I would want it louder :) Im not for a sleeper... I like people to hear me and get the F out of the way lol.... I was hoping it would be just a little quieter then the 350 Vortech... I loved the sound of it but it was a little too much at times and got annoying.

Zsteve 02-11-2010 11:16 AM
I like to hear the sound of a turbo or SC spinning up over the enigine too.

DannyGT 02-11-2010 11:27 AM
I like the idea of being able to modulate the sound when I want too, options are a good thing. Not being able to control the sound and hearing the whine 24/7 is a bad thing. The Vortech way, is loud, abnoxious, and after a while its annoying. Not to mention for people that dont know what that sound is think your car is broken. Being able to hear it when I want just gives it that extra level of refinement.

^ supercharger isnt a speaker. You cant turn up and turn down the volume whenever you want.

Actually with a setup like this you can...and I'm not talking about it in a TV VOLUME sort of way. I simply mean if I'm not going WOT - I dont care if I cannot hear it because at anytime I can just step on the gas and hear that great sound.

We just finished up a roots style supercharger on my friends RS4 and under idle/cruising you would have ZERO idea he has a SC...under moderate to full load its music to my ears...Unlike Vortech style chargers that have a much louder than normal whine even while completely stopped. I personally know two 350's with a setup like that and honestly I cant stand it after a while.

Same concept here...if this is one of those SCs that remain quiet under normal driving conditions thats perfect for me and is what I was referencing in my last post.

Gotcha, I think the supercharger probably sounds a lot different in person than on video. For my twin turbo G37, the video recordings never pick up the BOV sound. But when i'm driving it, I can hear it clearly between gears.

I agree with you 100%. I can't wait to see the dyno numbers on this SC system.

LOL, my 35-year-old ears prefer the subtle sound!

Zguy 02-11-2010 02:58 PM
im sure it will get louder as it spins faster... hopefully :)

bullitt5897 02-11-2010 03:37 PM
GREAT JOB SAM!!!!You guys over at GTM are getting it done with a passion!!! The Z goes in the shop Monday for the Stage 3 Treatment! Woot Woot!

StillenZ 02-11-2010 06:20 PM
DannyGT's got a good point... I mean in the vid, you could hear it under acceleration which I do like...I'm definitely not ruling a damn thing out until I see numbers and some more vids... I don't want to give off the wrong impression... definitely think this kit looks freakin great and I just can't freakin wait to start seein some numbers on these kits. I just like it loud I guess... I wanna hear that thing screamin'!
