Not sure how to make that evident on a video without some sort of fancy camera with a remote mic. I doubt my old Flip video camera is going to cut it for that.

IPF stands by their product. Offering replacement bearings is a good thing. Now back to that LSA engine sure maybe 5 more years down the road when the price of oil gets cheap. Go fracking!

I've gotten pretty used to it. When my belt broke last month and I ended up driving home on the stock belt with no S/C running, I realized I had forgotten how quiet it used to be.

So has anyone with the S/C IPF systems made any 1/4 mile runs? I'm looking to improve my ETs maybe I need to look at other options like those systems.

You can definitely hear it on one of my videos when I'm doing a quick burn out at the track. It really gets everyone's attention.

I've made quite a few runs on mine I posted video links. You get some awesome 60ft times. I'm going to change my rims and tire setup. Thinking I'm going to get some 285s or 305s light weight 18s with some stickier tires. I'm having to hold back my car on launch cause it will just spin out thru first and 2nd.
