How's the stock V6 Exhaust sound? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

BlackRS · 09-29-2009, 04:22 PM

I havent been able to get a good sound clip on the stock V6 exhaust. is it "throaty" or does it just sound like a regular V6

Like a V6 ... Not bad for stock but still ..... Do a search on YouTube you'll see many videos...

it sounds good accellerating its pretty much silent at low speeds thats how I like it a loud exhaust gets very annoying once the thrill wears off and the drone starts to kill your braincells I'm 46 and loud exhausts don't do anything for me anymore. I'd rather put the money into unique looks and technology,

I'd rather put the money into unique looks and technology, just think for a second , when a car drives by revving his engine showing his loud exhaust isn't the first thing that pops into your head "what a moron" ?

Subjective!!! some people just like to hear RPM's.

Souds like you like to sterio type people...

Depends on how riced out the car is (and I mean how crappy it looks and sounds, not if its foreign), but around here that is usually a yes

Seems like the people that have cars that DO sound nice when revved never rev them when I am around

i took mine off and installed the GM perfomance borla exhaust. sounds way better but its NO V8

I think I'm eternally scared by this guy who drives a mustang down my street where I work at 2 am like 3 times the speed limit with a super loud exhaust every night ,

as stated by the moto sig lady, it sounds good while accelerating, but when cruising and things, its silent, i really really like it.

The V6 has a sound that reminds me of the 4th gens. It makes a beautiful "WHOOM" sound right when it starts up (which puts a big smile on your face), it sounds throaty and mean under acceleration (more smiles), then calms down and becomes mostly unobtrusive at speed.

I guess I like to hear the exhaust only when I want to hear it. When it's "too loud" (subjective as someone said), it can really wear on you during long trips. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.

There are vids posted. I posted a few of Number 3 accelerating from inside the car so search on posts by me.

One of the very first posts was by Maxpower when we took Number 3 to California back in late December.

Those should give you an idea about the stock exhaust.
