Your 03 Cobra had a very quiet blower - I think you are talking about exhaust. The Cobra blower is much like the Roe S/C in most ways, positive displaceemnt, mounts to top of engine. The others are centrifugal and have a lot og gear whine that may or may not be your cup of tea.
The 03 cobra has a very loud blower under throttle. since it is a roots type blower, it will not make noise at idle, but under acceleration it SCREAMS. A roots type will give you a howl under acceleration, but nothing at idle. Centrifugal will whistle down low, but will not be as loud up top. I have never heard one on a viper, but this is how it is on mustangs, and Id imagine its the same deal.
