I normally supercharge all my cars and love the whine of the SC.


Enjoy

The "top" section is primarily devoted to the 5th Gen. Camaro.

And there's NO reason to apologize. No problems at all.

That is the main reason I supercharged my new Viper. You can't beat the sound but the TT's when fully opened have that unforgetable wastegate sound. Individuality is one of the reasons that make musclescars such a great hobby.

I don't know much about SCs but don't they have by pass valve sounds as well. That can sound close to a wastegate chatter from what I heard.

Like this mustang: https://www.cervinis.com

That sounds like a rattlesnake. Perfect for the cobra had they still kept the name.

I like the chatter more than just the psssssht. The WRX's seem to come with them stock or 90% of wrx owners have a certain brand installed, I just like the way it "simmers down" instead of just blasts one shot of air.

Most Supercharged Vipers use Paxton Novi 2000's. Probably 90% currently. The Paxton can put 1000rwhp on 93 octane and I prefer it over the Roe which is the only other system. All I have ever used is Paxton for S/C applications. You can run a 10 rib belt from NAPA and it will last for 10,000 miles so maintenance is real cheap on the Paxton. Plus you will not throw a 10 rib belt. Most people run an 8 rib by the way. The brackets are custom made by Doug Levin in Miami and bulletproof set-ups are always worth a few dollars more.

Blow off valves are BAD news for WRX/STIs. They cannot be used without problems.

Search for "wastegate chatter" or "compressor surge" on youtube, and you will hear that is just like the mustang but with a turbo and low boost.

Yeah I'm saying I like that sound better than a BoV and like the fact that the STI/WRX comes like that over say an EVO with a BoV.

I still think EVO's better imho.
