If anyone does, for whatever reason, want a quiet one, I have one here going cheap.

But lets just say I unplugged my noisy one on the MV6, and won't be fitting the quiet one in its place

Actually had another listen... Does seem to sound like something stops spinning around when the air noise stops so am convinced it's sai compressor. I'll live with it. !!

Unplug it, that will prove it. Its a single large connector on top of the motor itself. Reachable from underneath, but if you want to remove bumper, then you can see it...

This may not be clear - but there is a long black squashy hose running along the right side of the Plenum (if thats the big silver bit on top!) the front end connects to one of the 2 air ram pipes, the other goes off to the bulkhead somewhere. If I squeeze this pipe when the noise is being generated, it makes a difference / gets quieter - would that point at SAI (sorry for the frankly 12 year old description!)

I doubt it, sounds like you are describing the breather pipe which runs down to the exhaust.
