I run a procharger M1 and yes it does whine at idle a bit more then I would like but im used to it. Also I have a a crane 731 cam and I think its perfect, it will idle at 800 rpms without a problem and sounds real nice too, not too much but definately healthier then stock.
Most people who have had issues with prochargers or any other supercharger for that matter did not have them setup correctly. A stock fuel system just is not good enough to run over 3psi.
Bottom line I LOVE the sound.....

Just sharing my previous experience with Centrifical SC. Was so long ago, seems like a bad dream. Moved on to bigger and better things.

Re: Centrifical Supercharger Sound !
See post #6, my system was a ProCharger Stage III, M3, with a very large intercooler.
2000 season were HP500 carb motors, with lots of upgrades. First season was original carbs with upgrades.
2001 season were HP500 carb motors, with more upgrades and re-done to 509cid. Second season was Nickerson carbs, custom built for the application.
I do not know if I just had bad luck, or other issues raised by atricfreinds in post # 15. Others have done similar upgrades and love them.
For me personally, as I said in post#9, I would NEVER use them again.
