I'll upload a video of the white noise, I also am going to try installing a 1/4 turn ball valve to see if that isolates it...When I am out joy riding, I love the sound of the supercharger, but then I can close the valve and maybe it will be stock again.

yes again..

the manufacture of the kit is very protective of the instructions, etc..the reason for that is the kit contents are really so simple. Most people could copy it locally. For what he charges it is reasonable and I like rewarding people for their ideas, honestly it made me feel sort of dumb for not thinking of how simple it would be. If you take a good look at the inlet tube and the firewall, you will clearly see where the best spot is to run the sound tube. I wish they would let me share the directions..sorry

It's all good! I totally get it. Unrelated to anything we're discussing here, you should definitely post up a picture of your engine bay at some point.

I also have the kit.
But I don't like the "breathing" noise with just light throttle. It sounds like darth vader

Do you like it or did you figure out a way to dampen that noise?
