It might just be me but I would think that sound would not rank up there in my reasons to buy a particular brand of supercharger.

As for making almost ANY supercharger louder, just take off the filter of the BOV or use a race valve and I guarantee you that you'll think of "loud" in a whole new way.
Performance and reliableity is what I would be looking at.

I was wondering who makes the loudest supercharger, which one has the loudest whine to it...... I eventually want to S/C my '06 auto GT and I'm leaning towards the Saleen kit, but which has that 'Shelby GT500' whine to it, the Kenne Bell, Saleen, Roush or Ford Racing? I like the sound of the whine at full boost, not to mention the added power of course. thanks for any input.
IMO, Saleen is the quietest and the Magnacharger is hands down the loudest.

If you want something loud dont get a paxton mine is extreamly quiet. you can hear it at idle put the sound almost disappears when you give it gas, but my exhaust may have a lil to do with that.

I sure hope you are not selecting a supercharger based on sound.
yea it isnt the smartest thing lol but i do love the blower whine. the car can be weak as heck but if its whinin 90% of people are gona think its one bad sob!! really all of the blowers now are good products , paxton, whipple, procharger, kenne-bell, hellion. there all great id pay attention more to the install i know mine was a pain. a twin screw woulda been alot less troublesome.

I bought mine by sounds First time I heard a Procharger on my buddys silverado with an F1 hooked up I crapped my pants and knew that would be my next S/C
I sure hope you are not selecting a supercharger based on sound.
Don't worry I'm not. This was just a matter of curiosity to me. The 'track' record and performance and reliability is why I'm looking towards the Saleen. Though also the Whipple seems like a great choice also. Right now, my Mustang is staying stock..... skyrocketing gas and it being my dd dictates this, though with my 'federal stimulus' check comming, I might just buy a cheap beater 80's era Ranger to be the dd, then all Hell will break lose!
