Any chance there is a way to get a 3.2 to sound as raspy and metallic sounding? I have cat bypass going one in and one out of a dansk sport. I know 3.2 is totally different engine and has its own unique sounds but curious of theres away to tune for a more raspy sound??

Thanks,
Leon

That said, a good exhaust note, with just a modest increase in volume, can be a wonderful thing! As was already noted, the aircooled engine, itself, makes a mechanical noise that is music to the gearhead! And all a loud system does is drown out the natural song our engines make.

Reference point 1: my 993 is stock exhaust with drilled-out airbox for sound. It is my DD commuter so must be daily tolerable, but mash the go pedal and the intake roar is niiiice, along with the mechanical whirring, reminding you exactly what is hanging out there behind the axle

Reference point 2: my SC has SSIs and Dansk 2-into-1 (and sounds similar to DaveInc's vid, maybe quieter since mine is a 2into1) and sounds glorious! Mild-mannered on steady cruise but race toned without being obnoxious to bystanders is a win-win! And the engine sounds are still very present. Yeah, it's the stuff all we nuts gush over!
