Default Roush Supercharger Whine Question

I have an 06 GT and am considering installing the Roush M90 supercharger. Some individuals talk about liking the whine. I watched You Tube clips of Stangs with the supercharger installed. At WOT I was surprised at how loud it was.

For those that have the M90 how do you find the whine.....good or bad?

Far better word than nuts


Anyway I agree that the whine seems a bit loud but i have only heard them on you tube. I have the saleen and so far it has just enough whine but waiting for the weather to break before i really get on it as i just had it installed dec 1st. I like whine but not excessive amounts of it and the m90 sounds loud

It's loud when your in the pedal. How can you not like it? This was my very first time down the track with it and first time WOT after the install.

What did you mean by in the video "in forth, it felt like it really laid it down"?

I bet you could peg the speedo with the M90 and the overdrive off, I know I could with the Vortech... a little frustrating with a 140mph speed limit though lulz

The whine of the M90 almost makes me want to get one soley for it.

Uh...it is supposed to whine...and whine like a banshee when you are stepping on it.

And when it does, you know it is nothing short of BADASS!
