[s-cars] Theres a lion under my hood

[bob.rossato at att.net]

Does it sound any different with the AC off?  The AC
compressor and fan combination have a bit of a growl to
it.  The one on my VR6 Corrado is even louder.  That has
a 3-speed 450W fan.  When that kicks in you'd think
you're on airport tarmac.
