saw and heard my first super charged car

it was a vw jetta. it was s/c. but man it sounded like a toy car sound. you know when you accelerate. but the sound was much louder.it sounded like a tazmanian devil. (not the cartoon one) combine that with the sound of an exhaust and intake, and thats how it sounded overall. and man it was loud. but sounded cool at the same time. he had 18psi of boost and had like 300-335 hp.

this boils down to my question. does anyone know what ripps or any supercharged lancer sounds like?

supercharging is an aftermarket form of forced induction. the guy asked for sound clips of supered lancers. that's why it's here.

I'm sure you've heard a supercharger before. they're all over the place. You've heard a Pontiac Grand Prix GTP or Nissan Xterra.
