[opendriver]

Que?

 

[CDailey]

It does! I can't believe that's a stock exhaust!

I've gotten so many compliments on my car since I've gotten it. People think its worth a lot more than it really is. It's definetly a sleeper too.

The exhaust? Probably not, an exhaust for the Cooper's are expensive, like $800 expensive.

Ouch.

 

[Vonie]

Yummy. I miss it.

I dont think I can post in this thread. How do you think a 3L V6 sounds? Weak.

I think my 3 litre V6 sounds quite good. Don't have a video of it though.

 

[McLaren]

The TL's.


Def. starting to look for an exhaust that'll give it a mean growl without sounding ricey in high revs. A low-tone sound, in other words.

We can do that tomorrow? ill have the camera kit and the remote mic .

Wow... I didn't know old 900s sounded like that. Some kind of performance exhaust is it? The newer ones (9-3s) my parents have had just kind of... whoosh, with the faintest of faint growls if you listen carefully. That 900 sounds really rorty, I like it a lot 👍

Here's what it sounds like on the inside, the speed limit was only 55mph so I only took it up to 60mph since excessive speed on film is a bad, bad, bad idea. Sorry for the weird angle, the only safe way to film it was to put the camera on my lap so I could use both hands to drive.

I love the sound of my 69 Camaro. 40 series Flowmasters custom exhaust I built myself designed after a Lamborghini Murcielago. 2 1/2" before the mufflers then 3" after the mufflers. Could be a little louder but I like it for sure.

This is a pretty good one of me chasing down a brand new EVO. http://www.adfabdesign.com/RaceEvents/Grattan_7-26-08/Grattan_7-26-08_Videos/Joe-lap10-evo-pass.wmv

You can see and hear 31 videos of it from my Grattan 7/26/08 event. The Joe and Aaron ones are the best. http://www.adfabdesign.com/RaceEvents/Grattan_7-26-08/Grattan-7-26-08-videos.html

On the other hand I dont like the way Heathers 67 Fastback mustang sounds at all. Its a 200 straight 6 with no muffler so it sounds like a tractor. We will hopefully be dropping in a V8 302 next year.

I was waiting for you to pop into this thread! God, I love the sound of that Camaro! Also, where's Venari? His Cougar sounds bloody awesome as well!

No, it's stock.

 

[Kylehnat]

'07 Mazda 3
2.3L 4-Cylinder
Exhaust: Mazdaspeed

Wet asphalt + pine needles = no grip. I couldn't use full throttle on the launch, but you get the idea .

In-Car:

Getting on I-5. Sorry, but I had to put the camera down to shift, so the last five seconds are a shot of my leg .

 

[Perfect Balance]

This one is mine. It's more engine than exhaust, the exhaust is that small puttering sound on the first rev.



EDIT: I've never noticed that much at how much quicker my car revs and drops revs since I've installed the flywheel, but after watching Kylehnat's videos, I have to say the difference is quite noticable.

 

[Kylehnat]

That was one of my only gripes about the 3: the stock flywheel weighs as much as a house. The lightweight flywheel in there now is much, much better. At low RPMs, it doesn't help much, since the engine doesn't like to live there. 3-6K goes by in a blink. That on-ramp is also steeply uphill, so the in-car appears pokey .

Thank you.

Even better! It's a really nice sounding car then 👍

What engine has yours got PB? All the Civics sound pretty good IMO, I watched a vid on youtube a few days back of the basic 1.4 and even that sounded pretty good.

[HKS T51R]

heres my...."exhaust" if you can call it that


Im sure the video doesn't want to work

 

[HKS T51R]

heres a link...i can't embed a video...LAME

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5T2FYBEmIc

If you'll notice the mid pipe is hanging! After the car passed emissions i promptly changed back to the normal downpipe and i have since cut off the mid pipe...so its pretty loud

 

[buickgnx88]

Here you go HKS T51R!

 

[Moglet]

Not my actual car, but the same model running standard exhaust;



I'll try and get one of my actual car at some point, to see if it's any different.

 

[HKS T51R]

Here you go HKS T51R!

HEY! thanks buickgnx!! how did you get it to work? because it wouldn't for me

Matt

edit: heres a better one! as you can see the stock muffler is in place but its still really loud =]

This video may not quite be ready as i JUST uploaded it!

 

[buickgnx88]

Haha it appears you figured it out yourself!

 

[HKS T51R]

Haha it appears you figured it out yourself!

Indeed =]
I didnt know that you only use the last portion of the link instead!
Thanks buickgnx

[buickgnx88]

No problem!

I've got the stock d16y7, but with a intake manifold from a y8.

 

[homeforsummer]

Ah, cheers, so *does research* the 106bhp one then. We didn't get that engine in the UK but we did get the D16Y8, which I'm presuming is the single-cam VTEC. We got the B16A2 above that, then a 1.4 (pretty common) and 1.5 (bit rarer) of some description below it as far as the 3dr hatch was concerned.

But as I mentioned, they all sound pretty nice.

 

[socomplayer2]

Not my actual car but heres a video of exactly what my car sounds like... My 2008 mkv gti has its resonator taken out like this car. My forge blow off valve is on its way and I will make a video of my car and post it up.
