Thread: Lq1 Exhaust Sound Clips

  1. #1

    Lq1 Exhaust Sound Clips

    If you have a lq1 with aftermarket exhaust and sound clips of it can you please post it? And tell what kind of exhaust setup it has. So that way I know what it sounds like so I could decide easier what exhaust I want on mine.

    this is my 91 with a magna flow cat and a dyno max 3'' muffler in the resonators stock location instead of duel mufflers at the back... ignore the "Ping" thats just the old heat shield bouncing around

    What's the point to recording sound clips of an exhaust system?

    Every microphone has it's own characteristic coloration of the sound. Ever hear the same speaker, recorded with several different microphones--and then have each microphone feed played back through the same sound system? The speaker's voice will seem different with each change of microphone.

    Every playback system has it's own characteristic coloration of the sound.

    The guy doing the playback almost certainly has no idea what the microphone used to record the sound "sounds like".

    How much of the original sound of the exhaust system remains?

    Seems pointless to me.

    At least it still gives you an idea of how combos sound... Tinny, raspy, tone, drone, ect.

    for maximum lumina power....

    one of these days i'll have an exhaust vid worth posting. the MC just has a glasspack in place of the factory muffler, slightly louder than stock, a little more pronounced exhaust pulses, but otherwise not a lot different in terms of tone, and NO DRONE.

    the 91.... well, even i don't know what it sounds like yet.
    1995 Monte Carlo LS 3100, 4T60E, OBD1 Conversion...for now, future plans include a 3900, T04E-46 (Knock-Off) turbo (For the 3100, ~T61 for the 3900), and a F40.

    The 91 did sound good. It wasn't loud, but let it its presence be known when you opened it up. I don't recall if Ben ever got a resonator to get rid of the rasp, though.

    if not, i'm sure it could be worked in cheaply and easily... resonator, glasspack, basically the same thing. and glasspacks were ~$30 locally when i got the ~2" one i needed for the MC. 2.5 probably isn't much, if any, more expensive.
