What's not to like?



That being said, I don't think the LSX motors sound bad but there are others that sound better. It doesn't really matter what it sounds like to me really, as long as it is fast.

The foodchain of sound is the same as the food chain of power.

v12 > v10 > v8 > v6 > v4

As for the LSx sound....It all depends on what you're running. I run longtubes/nocat/trudual/xpipe setup which i think sounds sexy. Fuck LM1 and LM2. That crap is noise pollution and garbage. Id rather listen to cats and backfireing SRT-4s all night.

Now mustang sound....sex.

It's the NSX with the "custom" exhaust Dave was talking about. It sounds really good.

Depends on who you are.

I think most all V-12's and 10''s sound like ass....I also think there are a few 4's that sound awesome....and a few 6's and 8's that are nice.

There really is no "food chain".....it depends on the person who hears the exhasut note and either finds it pleasing or distubring.

A V12 in high RPMs can be orgasmic.

True. Check out the Lamborghini I posted in my eye candy thread.

LSX sounds great if the exhaust they're mated to is good and if you like the sound of v8's. So clearly most of the queers on this website won't like that.

Well if you want to be like that...

You're so redneck it pains me. I said Rich's car sounds nice because it's decent-sounding coming out of a Corvette, but I still don't consider it to be badass.

Funny how you decided to quote me out of everyone in this entire thread when I'm not the only who doesn't like the lsx sound. Oh wait...you wanted to use your stereotypical jokes. My bad.

My favorite sounding car is the Mazda 787B.

When considering goals of a build, sound is not high on my list.

How about a stock LS9?
