^ I'll agree with you in that SC'd cars probably have a better exhaust note, but as far as engine noise is concerned a turbo wins hands down IMO.

That spool up is just amazing


And I love the fact that during normal driving my car looks and sounds almost stock and quiet... but when I get on it... the spool up definitely makes it stand out I love surprising people.

I would consider few situations....
just first to say-I love our car....its a great thing to have even stock.

To start..best sound is Pure NA S2000.I mean Screaming NA car is the best.
that intake sound is the best.....and after the car passes you that exhaust is great also.I mean like the J's racing car or something like that...
I loved my BMC CDA intake and i wish i had HKS than..when it was NA..
that's for little Money compared with a full racing J's Racing type NA sound.

And i Yes Turbo Spool is Great ...you got to Love it...but you cant do nothing about Exhaust sound...

There is an Upside on all things and downside on them also..
The upside of a turbo is the Turbo spool sound and that special sound it makes but when the car passes you the Exhaust is poor even compared to a NA exhaust....
I drove the car with stock Exhaust a day or two when i put the SC and i can tell you that the Car makes near the same intake sound as a NA when it accelerates...and the Exhaust is ...well stock.
But with CATBACK there is another story..Now you don't hear the intake you only hear the Exhaust and that's feels like a F1 car...or a CBR with an Akrapovic racing exhaust....and that's priceless...
In these respects Supercharger always wins for me...

If we talk Numbers game WHP wise there is no comparison but i am with the Group of people that likes better rising power with RPM. And that Rush...
here are two clips...
One is a race i did with a 2L sport production Renault Megane...
You see that you wont hear the car coming at first and it scares you as you passes.There was a girl waiting for the bus and she Jumped to the grass when i passed my friends say...

and here is a video from the S2000 with testpipe and supersprints on Open HIGHWAY from standstill.
