Default How loud is the blower whine on a P1SC?

Just as the title asks. Is it the same as the D1SC? Quieter? Louder? Any info would be great. Thanks!

About the same, possibly quieter. It is hard to tell the P-1SC apart from the D-1SC. Bob

Here are some sound clips of a D-1SC that we installed on a Caddy CTS-V. As you will hear, this one isn't very loud at all. Bob

I may be sorry I asked but those of you reading this thread would you prefer your supercharger to make some noise or be stealthy?

Not loud at all. Barely audible at idle and completely drowned out above 2000 rpm. The only time you hear anything is the blow off fluttering.

If its too loud then your exhaust sucks.

What do you mean if your to loud your exhaust sucks? I have the below listed exhaust and I don't think my exhaust sucks... I think it's just a matter of opinion... Lately I've been getting compliments on my supercharger. Just the other day while at autozone some guy said he could here my d-1 while at the stop light and he said I wasn't even getting on it.. I thought that was pretty cool since I've always wondered if people could really here it...

My response referes to the original question, "How loud is a P1"

If you can hear a P1 over exhaust at any RPM above idle, then the exhust must be very quite. Typically a quite exhaust is more restricting and SUCKS. For reference, I have magnaflow.
