Finally got home from work where I can use my good headphones.

I not only don't hear the S/C whine, I hear birds chirping (and a ton of tire noise). Listen carefully to the exact moment after the video edit point approximately at the 0:34 mark.

Are the birds what people are confusing with S/C whine?

In any case, there is no S/C whine at all that I can hear at the 0:34 mark, only birds and tire noise. The engine is at closed throttle at that point as far as I can tell from what little engine noise I can hear.

But this doesn't rule out a S/C in my mind, because we need a good shot of the car coming at us with the throttle open. We don't get that in this video, as far as I can see.

Most of the street clips there is a ton of other traffic noise at the key moments.

My verdict: Can't determine engine from this video, but no discernible S/C noise.

The original ZL1 video? I can hear that S/C without any question, and without headphones.
