I went with Comptech's. Vortec is pretty much the same thing other than the oil line. Both are quality items. I can't speak about any others out there.

I can't see the link you posted becasue 'Youtube' is blocked at work, but I checked a couple of sites (using Google is your friend) and I don't see an Eaton SC that will go with the S.

I can hear mine at idle, but under power, I can't hear it over the CT exhaust.

Get a small mike, amp and outdoor speaker. Attach the mike to the turbine
and turn up the volume!

roots & twin-screws have the nice whine but that noise is friction and inefficiency.

If you want the sound just rig something up and you can make it sound like whatever you want.

But really supercharging for the sound is just stupid, i dont undertand the purpose of having something that sound and looks fast just for the sake of it.

Wow. If the Honda dealers are willing to do the install these things they must be pretty reliable.

Yes. On the other hand they WILL not install a turbo. That should tell you something..
