Anyone running a Vortech V-2 SQ S?

Been reading up on these. The Vortech site claims the V-2 SQ S is super quiet, but a mustang site review said it was about as loud as a 'noisy power steering pump'....which can be pretty damn loud.

Just to illustrate my frame of reference, I consider the Procharger to be obnoxiously loud, and your average exhaust-driven turbo to be quite acceptable.

Anyone have any first-hand experience with the V-2 SQ they'd like to share?

Thanks,
-Bob

I'm running it. Not noisey like a Ford p/s pump. At idle it makes the most noise its capable of. It is a little louder cold. Most people don't even notice it. Its more like a whir. I have considered a gear drive timing set to make the noise louder to scare people away. After all you have a supercharger, you have to have some noise its part of the charm.
