    How to make your exhaust echo at idle? Mostly for V8's, but other engines too.

    Sheesh that sounds clean as. Keen to get me a v8 right about now. Sweet ride, and thanks for recording it for me ^^

    Oooh, sorry for the misunderstanding. I just typed up 'aerochamber exhaust' and listened to what I got. I getcha now, but your input was much appreciated!

    Had a listen to some aero chamber videos and they truly sound amazing but not as distinctly echoey like what I'm looking for. Never heard of aero chambers before, cheers for letting us know about them

    Mate you are a legend. A straightforward answer. Looks like you put me on the right path, thanks a bunch! https://youtu.be/M-9i8j6IcQE?t=211 - 1970 Mach 1 Mustang with Flowmaster 40 Series Delta Flow Muffler A good, chambered muffler.

    The cams are the easy bit of which there is a wealth of information for. But the actual exhaust setup to pair with the cams is what I just can't find. I will look into glasspacks now. Though I know that classic sound, I wouldn't have guessed a glasspack would cause an echo by itself.

    How to make your exhaust echo at idle? Mostly for V8's, but other engines too.

    Cool! So Flowmasters seem to be the way. I'm curious as to the placement of your Flowmaster Delta 40, is it placed close or far from the headers? Give me the exact set-up of your exhaust. Headers, cats, H-pipe/X-pipe, resonators, placement of mufflers/resonators, yadda-yadda... I'm not trying...

    How to make your exhaust echo at idle? Mostly for V8's, but other engines too.

    G'day all, I've been trying to figure out the reason behind the beautiful, echoey, metallic tone that some V8's have on idle. Even some cammed V6's have this attractive tone. Some examples: https://youtu.be/0khk2hkQw2Y?t=54 - Cammed V6 Mustang w/Longtubes Couldn't find a better example just...

    How to make your exhaust echo at idle? Mostly for V8's, but other engines too.

    Hmm yes. The second motorbike (Yamaha R1?) has a big open slant cut tip. The first one has what I assume to be a baffled/resonated tip. I wonder what the Kawasaki would sound like with the Yamaha's exhaust. I want to eliminate this variable. The 4.0L OHV 'Cologne' V6 used in the 1996 Ford...

    Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has paired headers of cylinders 1 and 4, 2 and 5; and 3 and 6 in a v6 engine.

    VE Single Exit Exhausts

    Well I've yet to hear a good-sounding, loud V6 - but there is one exception. I was taking the mufflers off my twin 2.5 xforce (stainless) so I could make hella noise one day. It sounded okay but noticeably flat, or boring, kinda like someone had just turned the volume up... Nothing special. I...

    VE Single Exit Exhausts

    I see the 350z and 370z guys putting single exit exhausts on their v6's, and they sound pretty good. I'm curious about v8's and single exhausts, not many of them to listen to. Anyone done this on a VE/VF?

    Stock Camshaft, Increased Rocker Ratio

    Has anyone kept stock cams in their LS1/2/3 but put bigger rockers in? My thinking is that this will net some good down-low performance.

    Why do v8 guys seem so unhappy

    I should buy an M5 v10 so I can go around to all the v8 boys and go: "Huh mate, missing two cylinders aye?" Haha that'd be novel :)

    Why do v8 guys seem so unhappy

    My point was about how you think some people 'have it all', but they are still just as unhappy as the rest of us. *Some* people. Don't feel like I'm making a personal attack on you by saying this. Because you are a very defensive mob...

    Why do v8 guys seem so unhappy

    Actually this applies to many car guys Why so many people with great cars look so unhappy. You cruise along beside them, give them a smile and a thumbs up and they give u the deadest looks. I know we all have crappy days, but... also a good v6 sounds better than a good v8 only on the account...

    Xforce 2.5" Catback review (VE LFX v6)

    I quite like the sound really :D I actually prefer it over a lot of v8's I hear. There's some pretty ordinary sounding v8's around through... and even worse sounding v6's.

    Xforce 2.5" Catback review (VE LFX v6)

    Hi, just got an XForce 2.5" put in today. I will detail what I like and don't like about it so you may judge for yourself. What I like: The Sound, It has a tone I like and it delivers it very well as if through a forceful pressure wave that fills the air. This is achievement #1, I actually like...

    Hey, sorry for making some of you upset. I was upset too and I just wanted to joke around to vent. I got a laugh out of myself at least. I got more upset when my joke upset you. So yea sorry. (I'm referring to my big long complaining post as my 'joke')

    VE Commodore 'Flat' Stance

    All I asked was if having king springs lows on the front and super lows on the back would give me 0 rake angle. Then I would've liked to have known if 0 rake angle would yield bad handling. Then I also wanted to know if the shocks to go with the springs I'm buying will stiffen the forward to...

    No I've had it for a year now I can get the clutch engagements to be really nice and smooth, but when letting off throttle and putting f o o t on throttle the aforementioned problem occurs. I can rev match all my gears up and down; sometimes I'll get it wrong. But when I do get it wrong its...

    VE Commodore 'Flat' Stance

    I have my full license bro wyd now xd? I shall now point out plainly and obviously what my question was. "Do I put lows on the front and super lows on the rear to get a 'flat' stance?" Next, I would like to ask, "Once I do this, will my handling suffer?"
