so i ran across this video of this company thats makes replicas of exotics and it turns out their engine of choice is the 3800 Series II supercharged. i found that odd because the lack of sound it puts out.

heres the video-
Lamborghini Reventon Replica Chassis with 3800 Supercharged Engine / Custom Exhaust for V12 Sound - YouTube

after watching it i decided to shoot an email to them and see what they did to make it sound like how they did and here was their response.

"The simple way to make a 3800 sound awesome is to get rid of the cat converter and add a Borla Pro-XS muffler. It will sound bad ***!"

I was just wondering if anyone has thought of doing something like that with a Borla Pro-XS muffler? if so id like to hear it!

 

i have those mufflers in my room!

 

i have headers and a magnaflow muffler on mine and it sounds great too. i dont know what people do to make some of these sound so bad.

 

Boosted 3800s sound A LOT better than N/A ones.

 

love the sound of the SC!!!

 

^^^So true!

 

I liked the way my N/A sounded with just a resonator and no mufflers, sounded badass in person lol

 

So basically saying to chop of the cat and add a nice muffler to it? I've spent many hours on youtube looking for a nice 3800 sound and some are ok but I've yet to hear anything that really impressed me.

 

the problems i have seen watching videos of these engines are the cameras mic's just suck. on a cold startup they sound a little raspy.

Ok here are the sound clips i got today of my setup: FWI, HV3, SD Headers and a 2.5" catback with a magnaflow muffler.

 

forget the muffler...cam!!
