Hi all,

I know this all sounds a bit silly and immature but I have a LS9 powered Sagaris, it is a mega engine but I thought the supercharger would be louder. Is there a way you can achieve this?

Totally stupid thing to want i know but it does sound tame in comparison to the exhaust noise.

Any help / info appreciated.

Certainly with turbos and I don't know if chargers are different but the way to get more volume is generally reduce the deadening on it's intake (induction kit or the like)

Stock GM airbox definitely dampens the supercharger noise on the LSA. Now got a proper cone on it and it has released some of the noise. Still fairly quiet though.

The front drive front feed design of the LS9s are generally quiter than the rear drive setups from the old Maggy and TVS designs.

Plus where is the build thread or readers car section for this beast?.....

Did Top Cats Racing do your conversion, need more pics if possible.

Hi both,

Here is a decent article on the car, it has been improved since and yes Topcats did the conversion.
