Any opinions on how the OP's car sounds is pure speculation.

Yep good call on that! Actually it was the guy that is so upset about my opinion who posted it. The funny thing is that I was just reading another thread that he is actively being a jerk on. At least it is not just me.

THANK YOU !
The tuning shop clean the engine bay for me after install supercharge.
In Japan, that is why they usually do if you modified something in the engine bay.

When examining the entire totality of auto engines, a BWM ranks somewhere in the upper middle of the spectrum. Brutes are very easy to come by. Refinement is not. IMO to drastically change the nature of the engine devolves it into nothing more than a brute.

I have no issue with boost or noise, but not unnecessary noise. Compare the sound of an N54 or N55 to the obnoxious noise this car produces. They are very very different. You disagree and that is fine, but I am sure many would agree with my feelings. It really does not matter in the end, because we are not dealing in objective fact. We are dealing with our subjective opinions. I will say this though, I don't know why someone would change the nature of a refined BMW into something that you can get much more cheaply. The following would be good choices if you are not into refinement: Camaro, Mustang, Civic, Sentra.

One more thing, as loud and obnoxious as that thing is, it should make a lot more HP. How inefficient is the SC? There must be 100HP in parasitic lose to create such a racket!

nobody cares to hear your rant.. simply ignore it and continue on with your day... seems like every damn thread on this forum is turning into arguments and people trying to prove other people wrong..

This. I don't know why people feel the need to reply to every post on here! If you overheard people talking about something in a bar that you didn't like or agree with, you wouldn't go over to them and join in and slate whatever it was they were talking about! So why do it on here?. If its not your cup of tea, don't post. That way it doesn't turn into an argument and everyone is happy!

That was before they started using Rotrex blowers in the kit. Now there will still be issues, but this is probably the best attempt at boosting an n52 yet.

I think the last installer had his auto tranny slip. It would be good to know how your engine and tranny hold up.
