detjoe Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 sorry but buying a performance part for the sound? the TVS uses 20 less HP to operate, and creates a 70degree less intake charge (according to PT.net) I am not trying to be a dick but I cant let you drop all that $$ and not get the best for your SSS. if you were driving a turd...goahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on the picture, turn up your volume and see if you can hear the whine Honestly, being in the driver's seat...I never knew it sounded like that until I saw this video. THATS BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!

Black2003SS Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Wow... Look man, I dont want to sound like a dick either, but if all you want is the sound, I will save you thousands of dollars right now... This is all you need... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Fake-Turbo-...1QQcmdZViewItem It whistles while it works... Now, With the TVS, you WILL hear it, it just wont be as pronounced. Some things that make superchargers "louder" is having a quieter exhaut, installing a cold air intake, upgrading the pulley, etc. Like everyone said, dont buy for sound. Buying a supercharger for sound alone is like calling a phone sex operator up and agreeing to go out with her because she sounds hot. Chances are though that she is 5' and 300lbs, fat, ugly, and slow, but sounds hot as hell. Here is what a TVS blower sounds like...on a G8, but you get the point...

May not sound like a lot but for some of us we want to get the most out of every mod we get, especially when your dropping that amount of money.
