A rear-bumper clip tells half the story on a supercharged FG X. What recording position picks up the intake sound without wind swallowing it? Share a parked clip or passenger recording with the mic position, windows up or down and whether the intake is standard.

Leave one take at normal playback volume. If each clip gets turned up separately, a quiet setup can sound as loud as an open one.
