I think you would of been better with the procharger, but the vortech is still a great s/c. have fun with it.

no really.  they have a regular v2 that's still uber loud, then they have the v2 sq.  i had the regular v2 s trim on my car and it was LOUD!  my T trim is a lot quieter than that thing was at idle.

i don't have a picture of it and it's long gone, but the head unit only said V2 S on it and it was freaking LOUD.  my T trim is a lot quieter than that was. i was under the impression all v2 S trims were sq.  after hearing my stepdad's 06 GT with a V2 SQ, or actually, not really hearing it, then i knew there was no way mine was "super quiet".

Well i've seen v2's that dont say "sq" on the head unit.

They are still all "super quiet" because of the helical cut gears! Maybe you had a v1 badged as a v2?

i don't see why it would be badged or how it could be badged the way that plate is.  i bought it used so maybe it was sent in for repair and they used the old gears that were in a v1.  alls i know is my T isn't even a third of how loud the S was

Ok guys now I need your help! I talked to this guy from AutoTech(on the phone tho) and he told me that he would need to take a look of S/C and see what has to be done. I told him it's a brand new still in a box anyways he said he will have to see it, and that is OK. He also said it might be neccessary to drill a hole and maybe do some other things. I understood that but I don't really know if it will have to be hole drilled or something else whatever. Can somebody tell me what is neccessary to be done so the sc can be installed, what are the main issues? Again I have a V6 01! Thanks!
