I know the sound will change and there will be a noise difference and a hiss or whine but how much? Louder than the radio at a reasonable level or a telephone conversation through the car speaker? Louder than the sound of the differential under regular driving? As long as the sound is not louder or on even volume with these activities for regular driving I am ok. When accelerating or spirited driving I don't care, all bets are off at that point.
Any input you can share, especially for AA supercharger owners or from E93 drivers with the top down for comparison to the top up and windows closed, will be appreciated. Sound clips from in the cabin may be helpful but I don't think a sound clip will answer my questions since it would be hard to accurately record the difference.
Thank you!

I have a coupe but with the windows down I can't tell any noise difference.
