More blower noise
So im on a quest to get more SC whine. I've searched through the forums using the search bar and have read all the threads i could find relating to intakes, but havent found exactly what im looking for.
Im not trying to get any more flow through the intakes , i just want more induction noise, I understand the SC on the F Type is made to be quiet, but near redline it sounds so good.
On the diagram below i think #3 & #4 are silencers for the intake system, has anybody tried removing them ? I know the Eventuri intake replaces it, but im not looking to spend $2k just for a slight noise increase.
Has anyone else done anything to get more noise from the SC/intake. I'm thinking of getting the lower pully from VAP, but that probably wont happen till later this year. I have also removed my engine cover, and that did help make it a bit louder

More supercharger whine would definitely be on my wishlist as well.
This is the second supercharged car I have owned , had a supercharged Lotus Elise around 8 years ago and replacing the standard airbox with a factory TRD one gave the most amazing whine., absolutely loved it
Wish Jag offered an alternative to stock, maybe the SVR team could develop something.

If you want more information and pictures --- look up Mina gallery online and look up XFR ---- performance items -they look the same as for the f type --- he does show them for f type yet but they are available ------ mine were installed on my 15 f type r a few weeks ago ----- he has lots of other Carbon fibre parts also not shown online

Here's a weird one for you. Drove my friend's 2WD 'R' extensively, it's the one in our exhaust videos. After we put a tune on it - supercharger noise increased substantially. And that was independent of actual boost levels. Going through the changes in the software I don't see a reason but then subsequently multiple customers reported the same after we tuned their cars.
Still don't know exactly why, but it seems to be repeatable.

This would either cause A... a massive boost leak, or B... unmetered air getting into your engine and subsequently it running lean. Would not advise before truly understanding where that air is going.
