however, to be fair and honest - any r5g member that does this flutter thing will instantly be shunned, and made fun of without mercy forever lol.
Oh sign me up for that! I'm terribly concerned about what strangers think about me!

In defense of turbo flutter - its still way cooler than those fruity tailgate dampers.

I think I would rather install hubcap spinners than install one of those.

Are you going to install some curb feelers too? And maybe some fussy dice to hang from the rear view mirror, and a set of lake pipes. They make curb feelers with dice on them. :thumbsup:

Now I am thinking about vintage Ranger mods that would out Kool the Kool kids damper folks.

That's what I am talking about. :thumbsup: Some glass packs, a reverb, and some Cragar SS wheels would fit right in.

I'm not one for loud vehichles. The closest I had was a 73 Bronco, 302, 90 over with headers. And that wasn't loud, just sounded nice. Subjective I know...
I don't like motorcycles that rattle my windows as they drive by, never liked ricer sounds, and wanna be's are the worst.

I did have a neighbor who's sons had Subarus, really built, not faking sounds, and whatever they used gave the exhaust sound some deep tones. They would warm it up in winter, and it sounded like fine music. They never "opened" it up in neighborhood, and made sure their friends didn't either. One married a Subi girl, who's car was sponsered by Subaru, and was invited (expenses paid) to car shows in U.S. and Canada. One of the most beutiful cars I've seen.

Diesel whine, never found one loud enough not to like.

yeah, I'm older...
Unequal length headers. The only way to get the boxer rumble. Factory Subarus are moving towards equal length headers now.

Carriage top.

I keep seeing people like the supercharger whine, but what about hydrostatic whine, that is where the power is at, my tractor will give an outstanding performance. ? I prefer turbo sounds to the sounds of a cheap aftermarket exhaust, which seem to drone, i cant imagine its better in the vehicle than when behind it. I can occasionally hear a whine from the turbo in my ranger if I have the windows open and am driving around a parking lot, I would happily install if someone sent me a bov, seems like it would be easy to switch back and forth .
