The idle is part of the whole package. I can start the car up and yes if you weren't expecting it it would make you jump. I've done it to people walking by in Walmart Parking lot.
mine did the SAME thing, so of course you made an argument of it. but only after you failed to comprehend what i wrote and claimed my car couldn't be heard at idle.
Quote:
And I am not an Idiot I know what WOT is but idle is part of the package and based on my statement you started arguing. And in my opinion any 400hp car don't matter what it is isn't a poser you idiot. So i couldn't care less if you care about idle that's part of it and yours sucked.
you never heard it idle, and many diehard performance gm fans that DID hear it said it sounded awesome - but since you have an opinion based on the fact that you've
never heard it, well
that is the part that makes you an "idiot" here.
Quote:
I assure you your car can't compare to my TA sitting still and I can assure you your 281 doesn't sound as good as mine.
based on the fact that you've never heard it and the fact that the only example you used to compare it to was a N/A 4.6 that was making about 200hp less than mine?
Quote:
I don't care what you say but it's MY OPINION which your not going to change. I stated what the capabilities of my car as a point of reckoning as typical LT1's don't run like that.
i'm not trying to change your opinion, just wondering why you're coming off with so many contradictions and confused statements..like saying: supercharged sucks and doesn't matter, but then you say the sweetest motor you ever heard was a supercharged motor, or how you claimed a ls1 was a modular motor, etc..
Quote:
I may not have the same opinion of everyone else that heard your car thats why it's called an opinion.
no, it's called them having an opinion based on
fact after they actually
hear how a motor sounds, you have that special kind of
opinion that comes from the you basing your opinion on the fact that you've never heard how my car sounded.
Quote:
And no a 4.6 doesn't count in my book. Specially a stock long block I don't care what kind of exhaust it has or if it's running 15psi on a sc.
and you also claimed the ls1 was a "modular" motor, and i've never heard a lt1 that sounded as sweet as an '03-'04 cobra or a full-exhaust and full-bolt-on sc'd 2v 4.6 stang. the best lt1 i ever heard was a centri sc'd firebird and it sounded sweet, but only made 428whp.
Quote:
And yeah if it's built with cams and such I am sure it would count but not a stock long block when I am talking about a built v8.
i've had built n/a gm v8's making over 400whp, on a teeny-bitty 283 cid
, and i had a 396 cid cammed, headed and compressioned bigblock making over 500whp..and i actually got just as much praise and compliments on how my 4.6 mustang sounded. but, again, that's coming from people that actually
heard how the cars sounded.
Quote:
Your 4.6 wasn't built it had exhaust and a bolt on supercharger
.
so does that mean that you're way beyond being an uber
..since your srt-4 ISN'T a
built motor and it just has a
bolt on turbo?
Quote:
Anyone can do that. Not a built motor
Which is what I was talking about.
which is what i was talking about when i said many guys with built n/a motors said my 4.6 sounded brutal and even better than theirs. but, again, they actually heard it run.
Quote:
And just cause your car may have been faster doesn't mean it sounds better.
doesn't mean it sounded worse, no matter how much you
about it.
Quote:
Get over yourself and stop arguing a simple statement that most people appreciate a strong running and sounding V8.
do you hate your srt4?
Quote:
Most people do and I guess your one that doesn't good for you.
never said i didn't, just that it wasn't totally life and death end all be all important to me, like it seems to be for you.
Quote:
Not trying to change your fucking opinion stop trying to change mine.
Not trying to change your fucking opinion stop trying to change mine. hypocrite.
Quote:
I feel sorry for you...Your ones of those people that believes everyone has to feel the same as you.
hypocrite. word for word.
Quote:
Guess what the whole world isn't going to believe the same thing as you do and that your sc 4.6 sounded better than anything else on this planet. Not going to happen. Not changing my opinion or how I feel. Stop trying.
hypocrite. insert
built N/A LT1 for 4.6
Quote:
"but what good does that magic SOUND really do for you and your v8 when a big turbo 4 cylinder walks right past you?"
Quote:
It has nothing to do with the statement again bringing things into the conversation that have no meaning. I never compared 4cyl / 6 cyl / v8 in any form just that most people appreciate a strong running and sounding V8. Why do you call it magic. I call it part of the whole theme and point of having a car with a built v8. I never ever listened to the radio I was enjoying the sound of the car while I cruised.
and i turned off my 1000 watt stereo and rolled the windows down so i could get the most enjoyment from the sound my 4.6 was making, so again, what was your point? apples to oranges? opinions vs opinions? you say potayto and i say potahto?
Quote:
Thats part of a true hot rod heritage loud and fast cars. I guess you have no heritage of enjoying built v8's.
again you base you opinion on all guess and no facts.
Quote:
It goes deep in my family. I get shit for owning the srt. But hey it's a better daily driver.
i thought i sensed a bit of bitterness there.
Quote:
My initial statement that most except this guy appreciate a strong running and sounding V8 stands.
again you failing to comprehend what i wrote and you overlooking the fact that another person on this thread thought 4.6's sound better than a "5.7" but i guessed you missed that.
Quote:
Thats the point to argue. Nothing else. I don't care about you or your old car.
wasn't my stang quite a bit newer than your gm?
Quote:
I could care less how it sounded but it doesn't sound like a built V8 cause it wasn't a built v8 it was a bolt on v8.
never saw someone get so defensive and thrown out of joint when they claimed to care so little. i know something about built n/a engines. and perhaps i know more about sc'd engines than you, who knows? but one thing that seems for certain is i'm not coming off as a forced-induction hater, that drives a f/i car...but you seem to act like a built n/a motor is the only thing that matters - guess you could throw your turbo in the trash and build a stroker, cammed and
built srt-4. good luck!

no i never said that, i said that people usually heard me at WOT, as in racing, not at an idle, sitting in a parking lot.
Quote:
And you can hear me coming from a mile away which is twice the distance of your 1/2 mile.
i used that as an example - highway was 1/2 mile from front door and people at home said they could
hear my car easy when i was going up the ramp. yeah, i'm sure they could still hear me after i got on the highway, but i didn't yardstick the exact distance. and when i started the car people walking by would duck or jump, so how does that fit in to your window rattle?
Quote:
So what. Who cares. This has gotten way off topic because I said people appreciate the sound of a strong running and sounding V8.
and you seem to think mine would RUN stronger than yours, and people with built N/A v8's that i raced and beat seemed to think mine
sounded better than their cars...so i guess their opinions aren't fitting in with yours about sc engines not counting.
Quote:
You said you weren't impressed by your car but then go on to tell me that your car counted
because you said it didn't count, even when i informed you that guys with all-motor cars said my car sounded sweet..in the sound department
Quote:
in the sound department and is so much better and so fast and you beat all these cars.
after you posted your own is so much better and so fast and you beat all these cars reply first.
Quote:
But you weren't impressed by it.
just to state that the
"sound" wasn't a life-or-death deal for me like it seemed to be with you.
Quote:
If you can't hear the V8 idleing how can it count.
counts because you didn't even begin to comprehend what i wrote - you came off as someone that likes to park and idle to impress friends with that idle lope, while i said that i couldn't even begin to worry about how the idle sounded..while i was running 80mph at
WOT.
Quote:
It doesn't based on my statement.
only because you failed to comprehend what i meant by saying WOT, instead of being a parked poser.
Quote:
Strong running and sounding which includes what it sounds like sitting still.
i wouldn't be surprised if my ohc sc'ed 4.6 making more hp at the wheels and the crank, with off-road
X-pipe and straight-through "race bullet" catback was louder than yours, sitting still..or if i was WOT out in front. but what good does that magic
SOUND really do for you and your v8 when a big turbo 4 cylinder walks right past you?
