Sneak preview of new Gintani Stage 2 supercharger manifold
Hi Everyone
Here is a rough sneak preview of the new Gintani stage 2 supercharger on my own car. Very impressed so far but lots of testing to do. Power gains are massive and the car feels more alive. The Vortech V3 Si Trim supercharger is quite noisy as expected at idle but is quiet at cruising RPM When there is a chance to spend more time on videos I'll update this |

Haven't dyno'd the car yet, when that's done I'll post the results along with more comprehensive info. This is only meant as a preview

Not really..... our mosquitoes have a higher pitch , sounds more like cicadas.
This is a stock new Vortech blower commonly used by many of the supercharger manufactures in their kits. Same noise on both installs , and remember the hood is open. In the car you don't hear much at all, above idle there is no noise, and also this is a high gain microphone on the video camera. |
