Why do the 3.8's sound so horrable? and thats the weakest burnout iv seen on a rear wheel drive car

I disagree about 3.8's sounding bad. That guy just had a crappy exhaust setup. Sounded like what Loudmouths or Magnapacks would do to a V-6, haha. But yeah, that one doesnt sound too good.

There is a guy with a Supercoupe Thunderbird (SC'd 3.8) and it honestly sounds better than most newer import 6 cylinders, and quite a few import and domestic 8 cylinders I have heard.

Its all about the exhaust setup. But that Tunderbird sound a-fricken-mazing...

Didn't realize i posted in tech, maybe a mod can move this cuz i don't think this qualifies...sorry

Driving down the road, under a load ... that would sound God awful!

So I guess you bought the 96 GT for it's awesome power huh

In the comments for the video the guy says it has heads/cams/intake. It sounds pretty good idling.

This one don't sound to bad at idle. But I bet he only used 1 cam...

For its potential to price ratio. I could have either bought a 2000+ V6 or a 96-98 or so GT- Wasn't that hard of a decision mister condisending w/ 11 posts

That sounds pathetic. The second car video sounds great at idle, but again turns to crap when he revs it.

 

[Mustang5L5]

That one just sounds bad.

I've heard some 3.8's that i honestly thought were V8's until the owner popped the hood.

I've even heard a new 05 4.0L with exhaust that sounded like an 8

With the right setup, the V6 Mustang can sound good. Most people however just go to the muffler shop and say "Give me dual exhaust!"

 

[Stang|ess]

the vq35 in the g35 and 350z sound fantastic

 

[jasonh_86]

That first one sounds AWFUL!.. the 2nd one isn't too bad at all at idle, but the revs ruin it

I have heard some V6's that sounded like V8's and I was pretty surprised

 

[04YELLOWGT]

It also took the guy about 21 sec to do a 0-95 run lol.

v6's sound like complete ****... theres noway to make them sound good in my book. Either they sound like a stock v6 which is good compared to aftermarket exhaust that makes them sound like hondas. Yes, i know theres acouple out there that people say sound good, but they sound like ****. I would rather have a 96-98 stock GT than any v6 stang. ..

I disagree. My 94 V6 with dual Flowmasters sounds pretty good. Yes, it doesn't sound anything like the Bullitt, but it sounds good.

 

[Give Me TP]

A V6 with OEM GT takeoffs doesn't sound bad

 

[BurningRubber]

I like my big ass inline-6 in my Jeep with no cat and a Flowmaster.

Probaly my favorite sounding 6 aside from the 350z/G35, Supra, and Skyline.


But I know someone with a 2005 V-6 Mustang with a Borla axl back, and it sounds awesome for a 6 cylinder.

 

[streetstang03]

wow...that sounded like crap did he have dual fart pipes on there?

Sounds good above 2500 rpm? Or just below and idle??
