Weapon X Supercharger Lid Review (C7 Z06) Does it Make the Blower Whine?

In this short video, I review the Weapon X Supercharger Lid on my 2015 Corvette C7 Z06. I purchased this lid in hopes it would make the stock supercharger whine much much louder.

Because I have a 2015 Z06, I needed to purchase the updated 2017+ hood liner to clear the new taller Weapon X Supercharger Lid. This was about $150 from my local Chevrolet dealership.

The quoted benefits of the Weapon X Supercharger Lid are better cooling, more horsepower and INCREASED whine.

After installing this lid and driving the car for a week, I have to say I am not that impressed. Especially for the hefty $1,000 price tag. I have to admit, if I am standing outside the vehicle and someone revs the engine, I can hear the whine. Although I was sort of under the assumption that I would be able to hear the increased blower whine from inside the vehicle while driving. However, I cannot.

Driving the car aggressively down the street, you can slightly hear the whine but it is no where near is loud as I thought it would be.

The other modifications I have done to the car is a K&N cold air intake, Mamo V2 ported 87mm throttle body and Borla X-Pipe.

I reached out to Weapon X Motorsports and they said they have received nothing but positive feedback about the increased blower whine from other Z06 customers. I asked for some comparison videos from other Z06 Corvettes to hear the difference between their cars and mine however, I have not heard a response from them.

If I had to purchase it over again, I probably would not. It is sort of my fault too though. I should have requested video examples of the lid on a C7 Z06 before ordering.
