Will a Supercharger quiet the exhaust too?
 
Do Superchargers quiet the exhaust down like turbo systems do?

No. A turbo is an exhaust restriction. A supercharger isn't.

But you get the BADASS supercharge whine!

You can even run headers with a SC :)

I'd think it'd even be a little louder. More air in = more air out. Kinda like turning up the volume on the radio :p

JDM knockoff... I don't think so.

Great job on your web site BTW... you must have spent a bit of time on it.

what RG said...

the turbo is in the exhaust track, cars typicaly get louder with a super charger.

I remeber on a friends miata, he had a CAI, RB header, highflow cat and exhaust....it was loud but not to bad.

Then he got the biger jackson racing superhcharger (from BRP i think) and bolted that on, and adapted the coldair intake to it.

Thing got 10 times louder with it, he had to swap the mufflers cause it was to loud.

not that this relate to the rx8 but i've heard a celica with a roots s/c unmuffled, sounded like a f1 car.
