Default Does a Maggie whistle?

I prefer a TT but would consider a maggie for the aesthetics. The extra rwhp is not a bad perk too but...


Many Superchargers make a whistle that I would not like to have on a FI car. Does a maggie whistle?

It doesn't whistle but it has the most beautiful whine you will ever hear.

Excellent. The idling whistle is a tad annoying to me but "farts" are allowed at full boost!

I have an C6/A6/F55 with the Lpe Maggie supercharger that I use as a daily driver. Under 2000 rpm which you don't go above with normal everyday driving just cruising there isn't any whistle, whine or any other sound different than stock. As you start to go above 2000 rpm you get a very desirable supercharger whine that turns into a shreik at WOT. The best of all worlds Imho. There when you want it, disappears when you're done playing. Also when you start to get on it, it comes on right now with no lag, & accelerates like you won't believe especially in the low & mid range. Great all around combo.
