other than a smaller pully, how can you do it?

Buy the Ford Focus short ram intake on ebay. Usually about $40. Mandrel bent polished aluminum.It also comes with a cone filter.You can see a pic of it on my member page.You may need to purchase additional silicone 3" couplings. I used to have just that tube with a cone filter attached to my MAFS. Now i have another elbow that puts the filter down in the fenderwell. You can hear the intake whining under light acceleration under no boost. If you really want noise, Close the SC sound ports and remove the hood liner. You'll have to search on those last 2 options cause everyone has an opinion and I don't want to hear it You can decide for yourself what you want to do. The metal intake tube is a good start though. PM me if ya have any questions.novaspyder said:why does the metal tube make it louder? Im having trouble also trying to find anywhere that sells CAI's for supercoupes... nothing on ebay

Well, really you get pretty good whine out of anything that isn't the stock airbox. Right now I have the stock intake tube on my car with a 70mm TB and 73mm MAF and just have a cone filter on it and my blower is decently loud. Was even louder with the ZR CAI though.

Sound ports? (I'm still fairly new to Super Coupes)NMxr7SC said:Closing the sound ports will make it much louder. They are there to quiet the SC down.
Um,.....Jeremy.......I just used Liquid Nails on your soundports. My brother never exactly welded them. Funny thing is, I never thought they would last this long. Then I thought to myself, if closing to two small ones will make it loud, I bet you closing the big one in the middle will make it really loud!! Hey, I'm an innovator.

I wouldn't recommend messing around with the Supercharger without experience though. It takes an experienced welder who can weld aluminum to be able to close them like that. That is the only reason mine are welded.
The metal intake tube does NOT make the blower whine louder. What it does is attenuate the existing blower whine LESS than the OEM plastic air tube.novaspyder said:why does the metal tube make it louder?
That's it, I want my money back. I could've easily done that myself with my dremel welding attachment!Darkside said:Um,.....Jeremy.......I just used Liquid Nails on your soundports.
