Couldn't find a better example of a square peg in a round hole haha.But mate if it is about sound, definately give a couple of small mods a go. It can make a world of difference. I too love the sound of a v8, but I also equally love the sound of the air rushing into my big ass intercooler coupled with the bellowing groan of my 4 inch dual pipes when I get her past 2k, u can hear it 5 blocks away. Although I probably should not mention the "ghey" dose sound (in place of a blow-off valve) most people even here I think despise. Haha. But hey I love it.And yeah, I gel my hair and wear brand clothing, and I dont get my hands dirty for a living. But when I come up against a yobbo in his v8 tractor, all noise and no go. I can be sure that the one holding the trophy and with the biggest adrenalin-induced smile at the end of that sprint is always going to be me.
