Default Does exhaust tone change after supercharger.

This may sound like a dumb question. Will my exhaust sound different after I install a Maggie?
I'm thinking .. Pulling more air and fuel at a faster pace ... When it comes out it has to sound a little different. Although it's all relative, Technically we do that now with just a throttle blip.
Hoping some S/C owners could chime in.

At idle I would say no difference besides the SC whine. When you're into it I wouldn't say the sounds changes vs n/a but that it's at a slightly higher volume and also the main thing you do hear is the SC whine anyhow.

Sounds the same at idle/low load. Spinning it up cant hear the exhaust, just the whine. Buddy riding along side said it sounded the same as when it was NA
