FI Sound :D
What do you all prefer. The Supercharger whine or the Turbos sound?

It depends on the supercharger and how it's configured. Some are louder than others, same as a turbo's BOV.

My exhaust is way too loud to hear the supercharger while inside the car. You can however hear the BOV.

Supercharger would be easier to install. There a several people that have done the IPF system in their garage in a day or two. And one or two who have done the RX system. I personally did not install mine. Turbo, especially the mid mount twin turbo would be more difficult. Depends how good you are with a wrench and how confident you feel about doing it.
Oh by the way, I see you're in Houston. What part? You can see my system if you'd like. I'm in Kemah (South East side).

Mine sounds like a jet engine at around 2000 rpm. People turn to look at the car when I drive by. Personally, I think the blow-off valve sounds a bit odd though, since it isn't really blowing off, per se. It is recirculating the air back into the intake tube, pre-compressor.
