This idea may be from the fact that you can now buy a sound-effects box for your car that will play a fake "pssht" when you lift off the throttle. It's misguided to the extreme, and it's something that should definitely not be in LFS.

It's the automotive version of all bark and no bite.

Edit: Or what Davo said. That'll teach me to read threads properly.

(Off topic here, but are the blowers really that loud from outside the car? I've heard some cruising down the street before, but not something like this at full throttle )

Wow! Guess they can be that loud indeed Thanks

Oh, and I agree that if the car isn't supposed to be blown, it ought not to have the sound. Maybe if/when some new cars get put in they could be supercharged. I must admit that would be kind of cool

Mini Cooper Works edition does have quite nice blower sound too, perhaps because it has one and we do have something in LFS that could use suprecharger, that uf1000 making it uf1000s or something

Na I want a "100% BMW free" sticker for my UF1
