    You realise the supercharger whine comes from the supercharger, not the airbox right?

    pullys dont add power they free up power by making the accessories spin slower

    huh??? lol so going to a 10psi pulley from a 6psi wont give him any extra power? mine must be broken then cos mine got more power, better take it back.

    when you put the 10psi on it will give more whine and yeh ive added an extra hole cut in the side with a 90mm pipe that go's towards the headlight that helped a bit too.

    any bigger air mods you do does help with the whine as the charger can suck the air alot easier, i actually just got and installed one of these that helped the whine quite a bit, im loving it 4" MAF Ducting and MAF Relocator

    You're thinking of the underdrive pulley. Op's talking about the snout pulley that spins off the blower. I ran 6.5 psi with the stock Harrop pulley, then went the smaller pulley which gave me another 40rwkw (total of 130rwkw) on 9.5psi.
    Some blowers don't make much whine (or pretty much none in my case).
