Default Supercharger Sounds

I have finished with all my bolt ons and was curious about super charging. Does anybody have any sound clips from a blown LS1. ATI Procharger is what I am looking for. My roommate has an 04 cobra. Just wondering if they sound anything alike. Guessing since one is a roots type that they wont. Thanks for any info.

they sound quite different. check out EPP for some clips of their cars. Or just do a search in the vid section, google, or street fire. There should be plenty.

Yes indeed. We have a sound clip of the Caddy CTS-V with an ATI ProCharger D-1SC that you can hear at idle. It is in the project car section of my website. Bob

I don't have any sound clips, but I'll tell you that at idle, there's a very prevelant whistling/whirring noise. I like it very much They noise subsides as you climb higher into the RPM range.
