http://www.tomhenryracing.com/technical/blower.htm Three paragraphs from the the bottom, not the article I was looking for, but very similar. This one contradicts Eaton's own.

Is it this one?

[IMG]12. Are superchargers noisy? The Eaton supercharger system incorporates a specially designed bypass valve, which is actuated by a vacuum motor near the throttle body and recalculates the supercharger air flow when boost is not required. During typical driving conditions, the engine is under boost around 5% of the time, which means the remaining 95% of the time the engine is under vacuum, allowing for better fuel economy and a quieter ride. In addition, the helix angled rotors, along with specially designed inlet and outlet port geometry, also reduce pressure variations resulting in a smooth discharge flow and a lower level of noise during operation. Careful attention to the techniques used in installing the supercharger also plays a major role in reducing the noise emitted by the supercharger.[/IMG]

Yeah, that pretty much straight contradicts it. Tough call, I suppose!

Since we jacked the hell out of this thread anyways, noremorse, recommend a turbo/blower pulley combo for me to use for a twin charged setup. I'm getting anxious to buy one.

Anyway, I found this site, which had this to say about the Eatons.

Here is a graphic demonstration of the Eaton on a ECOTEC

That's pretty damn cool.

edit - and it looks to support Witt's side of the discussion, too.

You can save your time by not reading this thread if you don't like it...as for others, let them worry about their own time.

if i get off of work early tomorrow i will be sitting down with a pressure gauge and a friend with a srt stock bov and seeing if we can make it go pssshhhh i will hopefully find something out soon and report back and if sheek could pm me with a good starting point or a picture of when he had it in his car THAT WOULD BE GREAT. or give me the aim of the person who did the install that would be nice also. my goal is to have it be recurculated back into the intake rather then the manifold to see if there is any gains.

Yeah I bought the intense tranny mounts. I almost bought the Bwoody 2 engine mounts too but wasn't sure if I'd like all that vibration, what do you think?

I also bought the CA matched POD and waiting for PLX to get back to me about their wideband. If all else fails I will just get the AEM.

Then I can laugh at your funny looking AEM gauge like you do to mine.

I should call LFP for them injectors.
