I love superchargers
Last summer I was standing by the side of the road getting into my Z and a Supercharged Mustand took off at the light and 1/8 of a mile later as it passed me it was so loud ( it scared me for a second ) and bad-ass sounding I was about ready to trade in the Z  I don't know what it is about Mustangs but they sound so awesome supercharged with Flowmaster "American Thunder" exhaust! The Z and Viper sound good but nothing like a Mustang. Anyhoo this is what it sounded like!

one thing is for sure, you can tell when it is a mustang because most use flowmaster and the sound is VERY distinct

I agree, a guy down the block from me has a supercharged stang and it sounds amazing. The whine from the supercharger alone gives me chills |

My son has a Mini Cooper S with a supercharger. It has the distinctive SS sound, but not anything like the V8 with SS. Still sounds cool though.  |

The only reason I like my car is because it's supercharged.  |

I miss my Pirelli tires (the traction...but not the price ). I can't keep first or half of second hooked. |

You, my friend, are not a supercharger kind of person. That whine at full throttle is amazing.  |
