    open cone
    tiny pulley
    ported blower

    and about ~$2500 wasted in supporting mods for said pulley on a dead platform...

    Replacing the stock air intake with an open cone filter will really make the engine whine. It will also sound like a Hoover Vacuum at idle.

    Porting the supercharger and filling the silencer ports will also make it scream even more.

    Once you know what you're doing, and understand the supercharged 3.8 platform, then you can drop pulley sizes to make the supercharger spin even faster....and you guessed it....more whine.
