Heres a sound file of my exhaust note. I've got a turbosmart 3" bazooka muffler with 4" tip. The piping is all stock except for a flange to the 3" tip at the end.

I wanna try to record mine but my mic wont reach! lol

hmm...*thinks about using anji's laptop*
woohoo!
I can do it!

Will record it soon!

Haydn yours sounds like a bloody F1!!! lol it's mad

Gamisou yours is cool too..sounds similar to mine.

Mine sounds nice and throaty and screams at high revs. Sounds great when I get reverb from the Inner City Bypass tunnel and places like that. Revving the engine while stationary doesn't sound the same when driving though.

tbutcher: u sure that was your car?
sounds more like a remote control car or a honda :lol:

I have the movie of my dyno - and it sounds like a turbo spool whistle!! Crazyness

Manual

:D :D

Nothing beats the exhaust note of a MagnaFlow coupled with a MagnaFlow HFC and RPW Extractors...

Just love my combo :D

tbutchers ride sounds the best!!!! :lol:

****ing awsome, what setup do you have??????? :D

stock...
Except for the muffler..

Ok, so adding that muffler to my tj02 will sound the same? its stock as well... I WANT ONE!!!

Hmmmm...
The other thing with doing the recording.. is I recorded it onto a mini tape recorder.. then played it back through the headphones plugged into the line in on the soundcard...
So it could sound alittle different to what you are hearing... also if you adjust the equalizer on your computer .. it will sound different as well. :(
Haydn

hahaha you knew perfectly well that aint the true sound of ur car! theres no way a 6cyl motor will sound like that!

That is the sound that I recorded via the method above...
I DIDNT modify it in anyway...
I was purely pointing out that if I had used a differnt record method that it may have sounded different..
Depending on how close you put the mic to the tip... size of mic, if mic has pading, if in garage or other area were a reverb may happen or outside in a street (where I was) there are alot of contributing factors..
Only sure method is to do a lot of rcording at the same time at the same place of different exhuasts..

Hope this helps

Man, big fours sound heaps better, I did'nt say they go better, but they sound better for sure. :badgrin:

Man, big fours sound heaps better, I did'nt say they go better, but they sound better for sure. :badgrin:

dude!!! big 8's sound better... not fours! to me fours sound louded, not better!

eh, v8's suck. :oops:

about the note of the your car, is it deeper in real life? Like, more like it should be ;) , I gather the actaull sound is still pretty sweet :)

and umm, its probly not that different in 'life' because the sound recording without the muffler HAS bass, and distortive (is that a word) reverberation.

I love the sound its making (on my speakers :D )!!!

peace

Well Ill try and get another recording ... straight to PC.
Haydn

The rumble of a large V8 with dual 4" piping - there is no other sound like it - it is unique and sounds unreal - now listening to one rev and then hearing a BOV would sound the best - but BOV's are second to the sound of large V8's!!

Manual

nah i love the sound of rexies and hondas redlining. Was driving home from uni few days ago and heard a car making a whole lot of funny noises. Looked to my side to see what it was (waiting to see a early model datusn) only to end up seing a brand new hsv gto coupe.

I love the sound of V8's too. Also like the throbby note from a WRX or Porsche. 6's can sound funny cause they've between a 4 and 8. Wonder what a 5 sounds like. Heard an M3 the other day. Sounded like crap, really tinny and noisy but I suspect because it had just been started. Also heard a Ferrari late last year and it sounded aweful. Think it too had just started.

yep. thats why id choose an 8 over a 6T ;)

i love my rumbly 8's

only second to a nice m3, of 12 cylinder ferrari [druel]

ehhh... xr6turbo's sound wack!!!

V8's rumble, and waste petrol in the process... Holden V8's suck ass, 32valve 5.4 from ford is called -T E C H N O L O G Y-.... Mitsu's new V8 is gonna KILL it!! As long as thier is SOME form of technological advancement in the design of the V8, im happy regardless of the power.

anyway, the magna 3.5 sounds like a race engine!!, way better than any V8 slurr..

peace

Also heard a Ferrari late last year and it sounded aweful. Think it too had just started.

Dont mean to brag...but when i drove Shane Warnes 360 last year, it was ***IN AMAZING!!! :shock: Just the sound of it when it starts up.... as soon as you turn the ignition, everyone, and i mean EVERYONE in the street turns to look. cant beat the pimp factor on a prancing horse, thats for sure!!!

thedifference: u do realise i now hate you... i wanna drive a ferrari!!!

well i did get the chance to go for a ride in F355 and man do they hold the road and not too mention the sound!!!!!!!!!, i remember we pulled up at the light and i was looking up at a guy in a new AU falcon there frickin low as.
The Difference: are u sure it was Shane Warnes 360? as far as i know he used to own a dark blue F355, didnt know he had a 360 as well.

yep, a silver one. low and wide. just barely fits in a standard parking space. he also has an AMG ML55 (with 20" carlsson chromies), an X5, and a 5 series.
the funniest thing about his ferrari is when the rest of the aussie team saw it for the first time, they all said "pop the bonnet" :lol: which he did, to reveal- 2 pairs of shoes, and some gloves. :lol: :lol:

Rear engine lol :lol:
