Try the Racing Beat duals. Nice and quiet when you're at part throttle, but a great sound when you open'er up.


Agreed

Who wants to host sound clips of the Powertone exhaust with and without Edelbrock Tru-Flow for a resonated MP?

if the ferrari engine out of a '01 360 Modena had over 50k, it had better have been taken care of very carefully... and it's due in 10k miles for the major service... something like $10k, right?

That sounds like a lot of miles on a 3 year old car in general, forget about the Ferrari...

I would be surprised if you could get the engine for that cheap -- $15k....

Heres an idea lets start posting sound clips and make this thread a worth while thread.

thanks mate that was a great help

The engine of a rotary is totally different than the ones of pistion engines.... so you will never get the exactly same sound or even close to it.... However, there is definetaly a distinctive rotary engine sound that no other piston engines can imitate.... and I would use that as an advantage.... rotary's do sound real nice when you have the right exhaust ya know.

no problem, I had the same troubles when I bought mine. And it's not like you can simply grab a $20 haynes manual from the local auto parts store... gotta love the forum

But people still love 'em because they're relatively rare, very fast, and look great. Mmmmm. ;)


with that said you might as well just stick with the 7
