Black Camaro that sounds like a Spaceship in OC Area 55 freeway

I was on the 91 today and you were next to me all the way down the 55 towards costa mesa.

You: Black camaro with Black 22" wheels. lowered and had some red small graphic on the sides..car looks great, but what exhaust or what's making that crazy Whistle sound. Sounds crazy.

Just curious if your on here or if anyones seen this car.

This makes a whistle sound



Well, more of a whine, but it can come off as a whistle.

I know what a turbo sounds like, but this seemed more from the exhaust area, unless someones made a rear turbo kit for the camaro. It had a V6 or RS front Bumper and a raised cowl hood.

STS makes a remote mount turbo which basically uses the turbos as your mufflers.

Ok. Then i don't know who it was. Had they been on the windows it could've been Robb Rock or Maro SS.

Spaceship huh?

Man, I don't know any other way to describe it...It's doesn't sound too bad up close, definitely gets your attention, but I was about 100 yards behind it and i could hear it loud and clear.

Reminded me of this video

I'm sure there are other reasons but that definitely doesn't help.

That, and the incident where 4 cops were shot last march and Oakland people were praising the shooter... Then again, on the other side, you have Fruitvale station incident. /facepalm.
