    Does anybody know who's car this was

    Does anybody on here know this car. It is a 2006 with a Procharger. I am thinking about buying it, but would like some history. It has Wolfpack Speed stuff all over it. I don't know how long the Procharger has been on it. Another question for anyone who might know. The supercharger kinda rattles at idle. I read online that this is normal for a Procharger. Has anyone ever seen this? Also the blow off valve is very loud. Is that normal? Can it be toned down? I have no experience with supercharged cars. Anything else I should look for ? Thanks

    Alhtough i have a 2V, I can tell you the Procharger is noisy. When you mentioned it "rattles", I knew what you meant so i would be concerned. I would also say the blow off valve is noticable too. Is the unit a D1 or P1? I had issue with the internal seal leaking on the P1 more than once. I had it upgraded to a D1 and has been fine for 10 years.

    I had a p1 on a cobra and agree it has a loud mechanical sound at idle. Surge valve also is very noisy but I think they make different styles. Basically open to atmosphere which is the loudest and one with a type of venting on it which was quieter. Going off memory so don't quote me.

    Did Mike ever move and reopen his shop?

    If the car is really clean and can be bought for the right price you could drop in a built 3v. Legend Lime is one of my favorites.

    Just saw Mike last week. He is doing well and has a new shop in Trafford. Nice place!
