Love it.

Wish there was a cheap and safe way to make them louder.

Yeah every time I hear that loud aftermarket roar from a truck that sounds like a dinosaur's wet fart, I just picture a 20-year-old sitting behind the wheel. Usually is.

No, sounds like a lathe.

Loud bikes and trucks do nothing but **** everybody off around them. All my bikes and my truck are muffled.

Is it weird that I don't think I have ever heard the turbos on my 2.7? That being said, I rarely drive with windows down or radio off.

If I knew how to make the turbos louder without increasing the gross v-6 exhaust note I would do it yesterday.

I disabled the fake engine noise on my truck and love hearing the turbos spooling up. Much prefer that to a loud rumble from a V8.

On my F150 2.7 = yes.

On my Explorer 3.5eb = not really.
