I don't know squat about this subject so it might sound crazy. But I wonder how difficult it would be to make something in the engine to mock the sound of 2 more cylinders?Just a thought.

something like a cut-out put on backwards with a megaphone blaring a v-8 exhaust clip into your pipes?
Not a worht-while persuit IMHO.\'01 Mineral Grey SVT Cobra<br />-former F-body owner -

Seriously though, there is no point trying to sound like you have something you don't have.
You can try to get a sound as close to a V8 as you can via your exhaust, but just have pride in what you drive.

I have a 3.4 with a hollowed cat, glass pack, and a 3" tip that sounds pretty darn close to a v8.

Yea exactly, don't be ashamed that you drive a v6, our cars our actually pretty powerful for our class. And rancid, i don't completely agree with your definition of a ricer, in my book they are called posers, there are a lot of ricers that aren't trying to pose as something they are not out there.Comment

I'm not ashamed to have a 6. I think these are some of the best cars out there. But if it's possible to make my machine sound exactly like an 8, then I'm going to do it. I know many of us have tried and we have many threads devoted to this subject. We say we can't until one day someone discovers something to make it possible. But I still love my 6.<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/camazoic\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/camazoic</a><br /><br />Interest:Sports,Cars,Sport Cars,Sports with Cars in them, and using my Car to Sport(obselete meaning) in.Comment

I said something to simulate 8 cylinders. If I have 8 then I'm not simulating anything. I also said "mock the SOUND of 2 more cylinders". I don't care about speed as I don't like to race, but I do want the most convincing sound possible.

putting a cam could also enhance the v8 rumble. i agree with everyone else... wonderful cars for having a v-6 powerplant.Comment

I am happy to announce that I have sold the site to Robert (FirebirdGT). Years ago this site went down when TealV6 had it, I bought it, refreshed it,...4 days ago -
Went ahead and moved my starter wire from the back, to the front again since it had no effect on my drain on the battery. Also made me nervous driving...2 weeks ago -
Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 10:30 PM
