Default Supercharger whistle

I just bought my 06 in March with the Edelbrock Supercharger so my knowledge is limited. Ive recently noticed that when im in the throttle the "whistle" seems to be getting louder. Just how loud is it supposed to be when im in the throttle? Thanks in advance

Depends on how fast you are spinning the blower, but it's completely normal. Let it scream!

i have one installed , i never heard anything i would call a whistle. i have a couple vid , they are at low speeds. i will add them here. i might have one on SD card doing about 80ish full throttle if you still need it after listening to the 2 low speed ones....



I found this old saved link. It was before i had added a CPL filter and fixed some camera settings. But, it does have sound!! I would have lifted at 70 mph in the video.

I also have the E-Force and don't really here any whine/whistle like the centri guys. All I hear is the great sound from the Borla S-type exhaust!

Funny thing, on my centri the whistle gets louder when I drive by a pretty woman walking down the street.
