Saw this guy rocketing down Crowfoot the other day. He drives like a prick, just about sideswiped one guy and rear ended another, passing on a merge lane that ends in 200 meters la de da I hope he feels good about himself.
what's he got under the hood though? every time he let off it made a big chirp, kinda like a blow-off valve but not quite, sounded more like a car that is boosted without a blow-off so the air flies back into the turbo and makes a lot of noise. is he supercharger or turbocharged or what?

Maybe he has one of those whistle tips screwed onto his exhaust that you can get on ebay

What did this exhaust note sound like?

Is that one older? 97-99ish? If so I saw it awhile ago and I'm pretty sure it has the same supercharger I want on mine...:drool: that is if I don't get suckered into buying a new Altima instead.

It looked nice when I saw it, as for the driving like a prick...:thumbsdow

fuck you. listen to dragsters - nitrous cars have a lower, mellower sound. supercharged cars crackle and have a lot more treble to them.
a regular import sounds farty and obnoxious, maybe deep & throaty if they have a nice muffler, but you will here a bit of treble through the exhaust and NA cars are raspy-sounding when they rev up, and the pitch goes higher.
a turbocharged import sounds really deep and throaty and the pitch never goes as high as the NA cars, there is no raspy sound, and they aren't as loud as NA cars usually.
pay attention - there is a difference.
and if you don't believe me, ride in a ESi Talon with a ractive muffler and then ride in a TSi Talon with the exact same muffler, and they are two completely different sounding cars, and to back up my point my buddy's old MX-3 that had a full catback sounds completely different then his new turbo'd MX-3 that has a full catback and they even had the exact same motor. so shut the hell up.

You can easily tell turbo apart from an NA car. Even without a BOV.

Telling a supercharger and a turbocharger is harder though, they pretty much both sound the same with the spinning ball bearings and all.

Oh really? I didn't know superchargers had spinning balll bearings. I am pretty sure many turbos don't have them either, but I could be wrong.

Granted, there are some turbos that do have them and sound distinctive.

you're a douche, you have no idea what the fuck you are talking about, the exhaust pitch of any street driven piston engine car is directly related to the designs and variances of the exhaust system installed. the only possible audible difference between a turbo car, and a non turbo car, comes from the spoolin' sound emited by the turbo. moron.

Ofcourse a fucking 4 inch downpipe on a holset turbo the size of your moms flabby ass is gona sound alot different then 2inch pipe and a whateverthefuckractivepieceofshitwallmartbrand you have on your shitty n/a DSM, but say you were to have a average sized turbo on your car, its fairly easy to bolt on a exhaust system that would make your car sound N/A, raspy sound and all.

and thats a good one, nitrous cars sound different then n/a cars, man, I"ve been missing out :banghead: :banghead:

you are such an idiot, read the responses, a bunch more people agree with me then you, so just give up now.

let's think about this: every time you change what you put into your engine, what comes out is going to change. a turbocharger is A PART OF THE EXHAUST (manifold -> turbo -> downpipe -> exhaust you fuckhead), in case you didn't know, so obviously it's going to change the way a car sounds now, isn't it? Jesus Christ even by your own logic you are a dumbass. Go watch races at Race City and tell me that all the motors don't sound different depending on what sort of power adder they are using. Really, you are going to lose this argument.
what do you drive? a civic? you didn't even fill in that field. do you even have a car? so what my exhaust costed less. why would I pay $200-$300 extra for a part that does exactly the same thing, made .1 more hosrepower, and didn't even sound as good?

Man your a fuckin tool there is a thread full of people who agree with what bumpintalon has to say. Like he said a turbocharger is a part of the exhuast. Manifold -> turbo -> downpipe -> exhaust, obviously the exhaust tone is gonna differentiate from a NA engine to a turbo'ed engine. Take your 2 cents and tell it to someone who gives a fuck.

I would have to agree with team, they sound very similar. Its like a high pitched wining sound that echos through the exhaust.

As for the maxima, they are already fast n/a. Boosted must be a beast. :bigpimp:

at the street races he didn't seem that fast... but i only saw him run once against like a civic and he only beat him by a car length. I have never been to the street races except that one time, btw ;) the '99 maxima i drove hauled ass. this car is probably so quick :D

I had a 99 Maxima with a Stillen (Vortech) Supercharger. Pretty quick car, ran a 13.4 in Houston with 270 whp, so not a slow car by anymeans, especailly for a big sedan.

i don't know about everyone else but i find it pretty easy to hear a difference between a supercharger whine and the whistle from a turbo car's exhaust :dunno:

either way, this thread R0>< ><0RZZZZZZZZZ :rofl:

Som epoeple I must admit seem to have a harder time telling the difference it seems, but maybe they just haven't heard enough of either one to tell. You can distinctly tell which is which if you know what your listneing for tho.
