i was cruising at 7-11 on wilder ave last night, just cruising outside of my car. then i see this cgm wrx - dropped, and blitz nur spec exhaust. he goes into the store to buy something. right before he gets into his car, he sees my car and gives the long - double head check stare. as soon as he gets out of the parking lot, he rips it to redline, and i swear, it sounded like a fart-can honda. i was trippin out for a good 10 mins... what do u suppose was wrong with his car?

 

maybe a 2.5 impreza with wrx convertion

 

very easy to answer if you take the #3 distributer wire off the distributer it sounds like a boxter motor

 

It was either like mentioned above...or a 2.5 RS with a scoop....OR a ricer that bought a blitz look a like and had "custom" piping made.

 

headers and straight piping? just a thought-

my friend had headers and full 3" exaust.. and his car sounds remotely like a honda (he has a 04 STi)




aloha from the summit of *-^-mauna Kea-^-*

 

BITE YOUR TONGUE!!! Mine sounds nothing like a honduh and it has a WRX conversion, granted I dont have a Blitz nur spec, but a honda! Im with the others, it was probably an RS with a WRX scoop and a wanna be exhaust.

 

That was my guess.

 

Equal length header?

 

That's an interesting thought: sti with headers and a turboback exhaust sounds like a honda, hmmmmmmm. I want to see that one Greg.

 

Island Style has headers and a turboback and his still sounds like a Suby.

Nowhere near sounding like a fart can.

 

ive also been seeing some subys with the fart can sound, and one sti. i think its from running an equal length header.

 

i think Brent's header is unequal length. he did say the tone got a higher pitch than normal.

 

equal length headers with make it sound like "a honda with *****" I've seen this too....some guy was parked outside my work so i went to talk to him...said he had headers and some other stuff. when he left he ripped down the street and it sounded ore like a honda, then I remembered that equal length headers do that.

 

Equal length header.

The unique boxer sound is due to the uneven pulses from the exhaust. Put an equal length header on and it'll sound like other inline-4s.

 

Saw a white 02-03 WRX once at tracks (I think it was a wrx) and it sounded like a catless civic with a 3" Apex'i N1 Turbo Muffler. No j.oke

Well not quite as bad but the raspiness was there, hohoho..
