Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
Oh yeah, and I'd like to start off by saying that I prefer blower whine...the sound of something that sounds like a wailing banshee will always make the hair on the back of my neck stand up, as opposed to something that sounds like a fast-leaking tire.

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
I love both of them especially Cobra's those things modded sound almost orgasmic...but when it all comes down to it a turbo sounds meaner faster stronger....

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
I agree about the cobra...I have a vid of a modded cobra pushing about 460 hp at the wheels...and the blower whine drowns out everything...engine noise, even the wind noise at 160 MPH!!!

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
The blower whine is really cool,
Specially backed by a V8 gurgle.

I would also have to go with blower whine, when i was at the pomona auto show/swap meet i stood infront of a blown falcon and boy was that blower loud. The guy started it up and i was standing right infront of the twin carb scoop, and when the guy stuffed the throttle all you could hear was the massive whine. Here is a pic of the car

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
i love high boost turbos blowing off, but nothing will ever beat the whine of a supercharger. like someone said, a modded cobra sounds orgasmic. something about that noise just makes the hair on the back of my next stand up and puts a stupid grin on my face.

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
I gotta go with turbo.....something about hearing a car go WOT and hearing that telltale suction backed by a large PSHHH of the bypass....whoever said a BOV is like a car having an orgasm was right on.
Mmmm....TORBO!

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
I dont like the sound of the turbo spool as much as the blow off. I think that is the only "intimidating" part to it. However, I love the sound of a modded s/c car screaming as it passes the car it races. So my vote goes for supercharger

Re: Your favorite forced induction noise...
I love the jet engine sound of a turbo spooling. Probably beats the BOV sound. Its......just......orgasmic.......
