That's kind of what I figured. The larger blower won't be spinning as fast so I guess the pitch wouldn't be quite as high, but there's no mistake it's a blower. Main reason I'd prefer the 335 rather than getting the 210 & upgrading later ... Don't want to advertise something that I can't back up on the street


So the whining noise is actually coming out the air filter, and the longer the intake tract, the less noise. Interesting.
