Nice to see random is keeping it real for me.

Yeah dude, go listen to a sbc with an aggressive cam and some flowmasters, then you'll know the difference. It doesn't have that high pitched ricey sound when @ WOT. Next time try and not **** off a couple of drug dealers.

A 4 banger will in no way shape or form sound like a v8 running straight headers. You could compare the sound of a open header honda to a finely tuned track car... but then again open header non-turbo also sounds like you dipped the exhaust in water and it's farting out big bubbles.

True that to the fart can...

Please don't say your car sounds like a V8.. V6's don't sound like V8s... only V8s. Especially a 1.8L w/only I/h & cams= 155whp @ the MOST.

Plain and simple, there just aren't enough pulses to make a 4cylinder sound like a V8, less pulses = less volume = Can-o-Bee's.

Not tryin to hate, just helping one come to grips and let go of what mamma said.

Honda's and other 4 bangers only sound like a can of bees when they are on cheap flow through mufflers. Open headers give new meaning to the sound of the car.
