    Switched from S Trim to T Trim ??'s

    I just switched from an S trim to a T Trim the other day and was wondering about noise levels. The t trim seems much louder at idle than the s was, when I pop the hood to show it off its hard to hear the conversation. Also now when i'm cruising in drive normal speeds I hear a slight whistle I didnt hear with the s trim, not that i'm complaining it sounds sweet! Are both of these normal changes from one to the other?

    Thanks,
    Rich

    Some superchargers make more noise than others. I have heard both noisy and quiet S and T trim superchargers. Kinda luck of the draw when you buy one.

    So far both the YS trims I have run have been quiet.

    I have what would be considered a TQ-Trim and it still has a noticeable whine at idle. If you went from a V2 S Trim to a normal V1 T-trim, then I would imagine it would get much louder.

    Never had a baseline with the S-trim but seat of the pants...seems to have a little more torque. I'm also pullied for about 12lbs with a power pipe, I saw 14lbs with S-trim and am only seeing 8lbs after the switch. No signs of belt slip either :weird:.
