It should whine anytime it's pushing boost. It's a side effect of the rotors into the blower making air pulses. The faster it spins the louder it will be. Also the length of the rotors has an effect on the pitch. A larger blower will sound deeper. An m45 *such as these kits use* should be very audiable when pushing boost.

My Blitz is very loud. I have no good way to get a sound clip. My friends say that they can
hear it over my cell phone and they know when I'm on boost. The increased air flow
also makes my intake wistle very loud. I thought it was the belt slipping it was so loud.

Come to the Scinergy meet at The Varsity downtown on Sunday, March 5th and hear
for yourself. If you have a Digital video camera you can get a recording for SL. I'll
take you for a ride.

We won't be judging you on cleanliness. Half the cars show up dirty.

So bascially the determining factor for what supercharger you "buy" is what sounds the loudest? Wouldn't a better question be which one works the best or gives you the best bang for the buck?

No doubt our modern world does give us ample reasons to feel that way. But what the
heck, I'm armed. Cue the bad guys. Line 'em up and knock 'em down.

does the whine sound like a turbo charger spooling up?

Not with the Blitz. It's more of a whine than a spool up. To me it sounds more like a
large 1/2" chuck drill motor. It keeps the same tone, but does get a little loader the
higher you rev it.

I work for Murphy & Orr Exhibits on main st just down from Nopi. We build museums
and sports Hall Of Fame kind of stuff. I am the lead Engineer and project manager.
Stop buy some time. After our owner drove my car he bought a BCP xb for his wife
and is very Scion friendly. I passed a box a couple of weeks ago getting on the freeway.
Was that you?

My Blitz s/g is pretty loud too, but coupled with the exhaust, it sounds nice. I haven't really seen many xB's around my way with any major mods. That's fine though; it keeps mine looking and sounding better!

Hey Coolhandlex, I'd love to see another Blitz box. Are you going to the Nationwide
Scion meet in Ames, Iowa in May? Not that long of a drive for you.
