I know I'd love the acceleration in my 2.5 boxster with a SC kit, but that piercing whistle making it sound like a jet engine is annoying! I'm going to have to rethink my desire for a SC kit. I just might save my bucks for a 3.4 conversion.

I have actually have been in that car and can say the sound in the car is not that noticeable. I know what you mean though that was my main concern. I still left my car with them after riding in it.

400 HP is your goal? 330 at the wheels?

Sounds pretty ambitious. You'll get 230 at the wheels with the SC alone,
how are you accounting for the rest?

If I were to give with FI I would definitely have gone the turbo route.
Much less strain on the engine But sooooo expnsive.

230 at the wheels with a 2.5L kit, not the boxster S. That is about the stock numbers to the wheels for the boxster S.

Also, when you are in the car, you really can not hear the supercharger over the rest of the engine.

Hay Karl correct me if I am wrong but the red 2.5 in that video has all stock exhaust as where the 3.2 requires the specifically made headers.
