There isn't any solution for the sound. It is in the mechanical design of the engine. maybe you could download something for an iPod that would work through your headphones?
Hi Dave
so the good sound of the extreme replica is just a coincidence? because I see his video in youtube, and I really like how it sounds.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKyxAvOVpukMy cousin has a 406 coupe, (no 360 replica) and his original peugeot engine with peugeot oem muffler sound like any car, that engine has no titanium parts or high revs. that´s why I´m confused about this.
hear the difference:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLL149JFqf8&feature=relatedExtreme just added the muffler to the exact same car and the sound changed a lot, to match a Ferrari, in my opinion, maybe you have better audition, and that´s why you think different, (the music teacher told me that I have artillery soldier ears!!).
I will try it, and will be able to tell you in December, when I go and pick the 360 muffler I just bought in USA.
what do you think about how extreme resolved it? am I in a complete different situation?
Sorry but if you think anything on a lambo build is or will be a low budget you need to really reconsider your budget. I am sure a ferrari muffler is not going to be low budget either. I see all these threads regarding trying to replicate the sound of the real thing. These cars take so much time to build and so much money that I wouldn't worry about such trival items as engine sound. You will never duplicate the sound of a V12 as mentioned many times before. it is the 12 engine pulses that makes the exotic sound not the muffler. I would be more concerned by getting the entire vehilce mocked up, before I would care about the exhaust note.
When you have to build your exhaust you may find yourself making a selection based on what muffler actually fits the space and not by how it sounds.

Thanks Mike
I want a closer sound to a Ferrari 8 cyl. that´s why I´m asking about the ferrari muffler in a v6 or v8 engine,
I´m asking this because of the way how extreme resolved this, and got a nice result, he is my idol!!
I made some test like 10 years ago with my shifter go kart, they all sound like Rc cars or planes, so I took one of the mufflers from my gsxr and fitted it to the kart, it sounded really nice when it was in higher revs, not the exact sound of the GSXR bike, but sounded like a sport bike for sure. I´m not expert in engineering or something like that, after testing it, I got a conclusion, that it needed more airflow through it to get the sound, I´m maybe wrong, but got that impression after testing that.
About the price, I just bought one 360 muffler in perfect shape for $200, that fits my budget
, got lucky on this. but since I´m not in a rush to finish it, I have time to research and ask people like you guys here that have the knowledge and more experience than me while building my project.
Maybe it seems rushed to you, but I just want to have the information and the knowledge for the time this issue needs to be resolved, I will have plenty of space for it, i´m not worried about that, I´m more worried about the sound note.
As soon as I got the muffler here I will test it that way, I wanted your oppinion, but I think this topic turned other different way after each post
If you guys have any other feedback on this, please let me know.
I bought the muffler, and I will try it in my Honda Accord, and in a cadillac. but that may happen in december or january, when I travel to US and Canada, and then pick it up and return to Mexico.
Best regards
JELP
