Re: Loudest supercharger?

The ones that have straight cut gears are going to be the loudest. I believe paxton units use them, or did at one point, I'm not positive.... otherwise, you slap a big enough vortec or ATI on there, and you'll hear it, dont worry. Try a D1 or an F1

The V1 S and T trims are pretty loud as well. As stated, anything with straight cut gears is going to make some noise.

Paxton is what you're looking for, I have a friend with a Paxton race blower on his 03 Cobra and you can hear that mother from a mile away.

I have owned the P600b, D1SC and F1 will say hands down the P600b was the loudest.

thanks guys steven
My p600b is the loudest one I have heard so far. But it only whines around idle to about 1500rpms. Then I can't hear anything. I thought it would get louder before I got one but apparently it doesn't.

Re: Loudest supercharger?

sounds like my s-trim...around 1200rpm its ear piercing loud, like literally i have had fast food drive through places screaming at me to have my friend stop whistling while i talk. when i pull around and the car is whistling they just look at me odd and my friend just laughs and i say "Belt tensioner is worn" and they ask for me to turn my car off next time.

if you want to hear my s-trim idling, i have a vid clip (please dont alot of people D/L it, its on angelfire and will chew up my space for other stuff)

http://www.angelfire.com/id/sfms/Dcp_0022.mov (car is idling with open y-pipe, to give any idea of how loud it is)
