Correct. I blocked off the intake noise generator which helps. With the Supercharger this juvenile device is discarded entirely. Now pushing in the clutch to coast at 70 mph literally makes no difference to the sound level.

These cars have very little sound deadening from the factory. Noisiest car this side of a Cayman in which the stock engine noise level can actually reach pain threshold!
