You could simply stick a spare V6 into a Lotus-7. That would awesome !!!

wow this is great stuff, i thought they where so nice on here, but give em a poke and RAR off they go, just gota find the button and press it repeatedly. Dont stop its a long weekend and i got nothing on.
Now, who wants to post on blue dash Leds and under car lighting? Any gay pimps out there?
 I have to say tho, a v engine noise makes me ... Oooh dont tell the mrs. Ausy touring cars and that Ascari A10 on Clarksons dvd... I re wound that with home cinema up full so many times, its like a spitfire meshasmit and that mclaren merc all rolled into one, just pure orgasm to me.

Just to put things in perspective here's my two pence worth.

I think there's nothing better than to hear a well tuned engine or a V6/V8 gurgling away or producing a great sound track at high revs but there has to be control as to how much noise they produce. Can you imagine what it would be like to have thousands of cars howling away if you lived anywhere near a road. So, have a car that makes a great sound but within reason.

On the other hand, in motor racing at a proper racing cicuit, the louder the better. It's one of the reasons I love motorsport so much.

As said, it's all about getting things into perspective.

Why not try fitting one to your BBQ for the lakes Bob ...might help cook the food quicker

yep, not sure i'd want an A10 living next door to me and starting up early a.m. in our little close. Ok, i would, but your right of course, its a bit selfish really.
Must be a way to have it nice and quiet low revs and Ascari A10 from say, above 5000 rpm? Anyone?

Induction side is fine, any messing is at risk of hot air intake or getting water in from puddles.

What you really want are tubular exhaust manifolds and a large bore exhaust - rather than a noisy intake

If you want a REAL roar, buy a DIESEL!   They make a fair old din!

Well guys tried the drilling loads of holes in the box theory and guess wat?? It bloody worked a treat!!! Low revs not much sound which is good as the garda wont be like eh wats all this then but when u plant the shoe oh mercy its nice!! Even nicer than an induction cone which was a tad chavvy!!! Its just a subtle v6 roar!!! Thanks 4 the replies lads was worth the question

Chav













 

[feeutfo]

Your car mate, do what you like with it, dont let us well healed, well educated, toff snobs tell a pikey asbo what not to do with it. Have u got an ankle barcelet hanging from your rear view mirror?
....... Er.... What size holes? ;-)

[feeutfo]

And how many?

[Ian_D]

I always hate the association between modded cars and chavs... Does my head in!

Im about as far from a chav as I can be... I hate them!

But because I have a cone filter on my car, it makes automatically makes me a chav? What will I be when I change the exhaust then? A SUPER Chav?

Whatever everyone's opinion --- you got the effect you were after -- that can't be bad, can it ?

[feeutfo]

yep, another happy customer? Hope he was not offended? Each to his own and all that.
