Yes, superchargers make that whineing nosie, its sounds hella nice. But I still like the sound of a BOV better, IMO.

The G35 probably had a centrifugal S/C like a Vortech or Procharger, they make sort of a whistle/turbine sound. Roots and twin screw superchargers make the whining sound.

i think the whining noise is this thingy he put in his exhaust, read it in the end of the vid...a S/C does make a whinny noise but never EVER that loud

Oh, and i'm pretty sure you can add a bov to a supercharger application, its simply a valve before the TB that releases the pressure from the turbo (or S/C) when the butterfly closes

they get anoying after a month!

Ever heard an '03/04 Cobra with a KB S/C? It's makes a very loud whining/screaming sound under WOT.

It is. Go look at other videos of Mustangs, Cameros, Vettes, etc. You can here that whine nosie. Its not from the exhaust. You dont know anything about superchargers.

First of all the '03 Mustang GT has a 4.6L, second Procharger is a centrifugal S/C, as I said before it sounds different and doesn’t make the whining sound like Roots or twin screw type superchargers do.

Here’s an example of a Cobra with a twin screw KB S/C, now tell me that isn’t loud:

Dude, shut up. Dont get all anal. I can say whatever the fuck I want. You dont know anything about a supercharger. You help install a turbocharger, thats not a supercharger, plus you only helped. You are doing a engine swap, doesnt take a smart ass person to put a engine into a engine bay, does it? You dont know half the shit people here know, you dont know much. You kept saying he put something in his exhaust. More then one person said that it isnt. Then you needed to hear it from mrsteve. So dont think you know everything about FI becaue you "helped" install a turbo.

It is all supercharger noise guys

Oh and notice he is shifting a stock redline. He needs to upgrade to 650s to rev all the way to 8800 rpm. Should add a considerable amount of horsepower with 900-1000 more rpm to play with.

I dont do this very often, but I'm giving you a warning. Keep your foul mouthed comments to yourself. Agree to disagree on some things, use proof to back up what you're saying, not insults and wild guesses as to other peoples intelligence. I'm watching you.

He runs out of fuel actually...plenty of boost.

He is currently runing 550cc injectors. The duty cycle on the injectors reaches 100% around 8,000 rpm. Upgrading to 650s will allow him to rev all the way to 8,800 and pick up a good 10-15whp.
