Anything overdone gets a bit more boring, where i separate the LS is it still sounds really good, and likewise because of the different head options can sound a bunch of different ways. I'm more into tuner cars but i feel negatively towards stuff being overdone more so with K20 because that engine with its best head sadly does not usually sound that good, even compared to many other 4cyl, that said ported k24 heads (which work well for turbo applications if not as insane for NA) don't suffer these issues, or at least give enough material a serious head porter can still end up with a good sounding engine, K20 suffering from areas being removed that really effect the way it sounds (and also cause exhaust reversion, thus the constant blown up K20s.) They did some weird cost cutting on the exhaust side of the K20s head and it ruined one of the best performance 4cyl in the least important ways for a dyno, but the most important in my soul. Thanks for the your LS recipe, your content is always top notch.

Can you make a 350z sounds like a 911 gt3 with unequal length headers (the theory is to advance/retard the arrival of the pulse to mimic the "firing sequence" of the desired car) and maybe manufacture these
@FluidMotorUnion
2 ай бұрын
It’s a KZitem propagated misconception that somehow all cars sound alike if given the same firing order… firing order is important, but it’s not the “instrument” that creates the sound, it’s an adjustment, a “tune”. You couldn’t make a flute sound like sousaphone if you made the pipes longer and bigger, it would just sound like a flute with some stuff on it. The cylinder head, valves, cam timing and ignition play a much bigger part in giving an engine a sound than the header construction. WE COULD, and HAVE made great sounding VQ’s using unique exhaust concepts, but you’d still hear a VQ, not a porsche…

Bad header design. Those plug wires will never make it. Also 1000hp with a 700r4 trans will never last. There is tons of room in front of the grille. I’ve got a 4 inch thick intercooler on mine. All the exhaust work took up space for no reason. Just will make excess heat it then engine bay. For a real ls guru check out sloppy mechanics KZitem channel although Richard holdner is good he doesn’t have real world data on the engines. He does a full throttle pull and calls it done.

You must be new here. Built 700r4 before we touched it. Lots of 1000 hp++ 700r4s built right, pretty common actually, but this one should handle 1200 with a trans brake… Plug wires are how you insulate them. We build our own but won’t have an issue looking pretty and handling glowing manifolds.
