Default Do Saleen/Roush superchargers whine?

I've heard that they are basically an eaton supercharger, but I was curious to know if they also whine.[&:]

The Roush (Eaton) makes no noise at idle, only on acceleration. Not too much, just right.

My 2006 S281SC whines the loudest around 1800-2000 rpm. Here is a video to give you an idea.

No luck whatsoever. Saleen won't even talk to me. So I've decided[/align]to do an 03' Cobra engine swap,and the new Whipple Supercharger.[/align]

Yellow
Somethings wrong with your setup...should be making more power.
The 4v is the way to go.

From what I've read on these forums. I should be making alot more power.[/align]But I'm not. And I'm more than a little dissapointed in this paperweight( Saleen )[/align]So, I'll go fully built 4v with 15-20psi of boost,and my Zex and see what happens.[/align]For ANYONE thinking of buying a Saleen Series IV. Don't waste your money ![/align]

Yellow, you will surely be in the 600+rwhp range with that setup! Keep us posted

No problem. It's going to be awhile. I just bought the 03' Cobra heads on Monday.[/align]Sending them to Sean Hyland Motorsport for a couple day's of massage(P & P )[/align]Then an all new valvetrain. Now I need a bulletproof shortblock. My car is still under[/align]about 1 ft of snow. And my 3 oldest kids are in college bleedin' me dry.[/align]
