What on earth is that, it sounds like a hairdryer!
Doesn't sound like a supercharger whine though.......

Well if thats a high performance turbo'd car I dont think much of its acceleration.
Watch from around 1.14, turbo or what ever it is, is spooling up but not going anywhere, the time it takes to travel between lamp posts and to pass the car at 1.20

That's a really good point! It doesn't seem to actually accelerate that fast!
This is what a supercharger sounds like:

they may not be trying to accelerate much, mine needs a lot of straight road in front to have a chance at stopping, preferably with no cars on lol Mines only a baby at 400 but I wouldn't accelerate that hard with so little space in front of me or either me or the car in front would be about twelve cars up that little queue
