Default Assistance needed in loudest SC whine (not whistle) Example vid inside

My vehicle is a LS3 C6 with AT tranny.

My goal is to stay on stock engine, stock fuel pump, & stock headers BUT purchase a SC. Problem is all threads I've read speak about owners wanting a quiet SC. I am looking for the loudest SC that produces a whine rather then that BOV noise I hear on some SC-ed C6's.

I realize it's an odd request to make a thread about not caring about power, or quiet SC, etc...
I had an Acura RSX Type-S with Comptech SC and miss that whine. I moved to a mustang (I know) that had a whipple on it. Example video below.

The best examples of loud supercharged C6's I can find are ZR1's with smaller pulleys. (as seen in video below)

I do not mind purchasing a raised hood if needed to clear such a supercharger that will yield me the sound I want.

I should also add that I don't mind paying the same price for said "whiney" SC that yields less whp/wtq then the "other" SC that makes no noise but more power.

Sounds like you just need a speaker wired up under the hood that plays some alternator noise that goes up with RPM. That should be perfect for you.

A jack shaft Magnuson TVS2300 with the cogged belt on the rear should do exactly what you're wanting to do. Old school whine out the wazzooo. Easily 600+hp at the wheels with mild blower cam and bolt ons.

Pick up an F series procharger head unit, that will have the sound you're looking for

Love the sound of blower whine! Good luck finding your sound.

It's a little different than the PD blower whine

Here's mine w/o a hood (the hood cut the noise almost in half)

Isn't the magnus 112 louder?
I'd assume in terms of loudest whine to least it would be 112, 122, tvs1900, tvs 2300, procharger, then magnus heartbeat.... AM am I wrong?

What? These whipples hardly make a sound. Here is a video of a whipple on a C6...

Those seem to whine at idle. I'm looking for a whine under throttle

for a while just get a tvs or eforce thats the only blowers that are going to give you the whine you are looking for me.. problem is they cost alot more than the a&a and ecs kits...

Ummm..... seriously.....revisit post number 5 in this thread. If that's what you're after, it's there in spades. You will need to buy a hood. You mentioned that investing in a hood isn't a problem. Boom, done.

I have a video I will post if Photobucket ever finishes uploading!!! Maggie tvs2300 is exactly what you need. Just upgrade to the cogged rear pulleys and it sounds awesome!
