What is it about V8s that makes then inherently sound so much better than other engine configurations?
Because of reasons. Here's mine
https://youtu.be/ABuanvMOaBc
the best sounding engines are v10s
this is a fact
>>14301685
V12 sounds better.
>>14301665
What you are describing is the sound of freedom.
>>14301665
because of the firing order and the way the exhausts are tuned
>>14301694
no
>>14301665
i5s are best sounding IMO
>>14301685
>>14301685
You must have not heard many in person if you truly believe that
>just bought a hemi
>tfw no more sound of shitty 4 cylinder engine
>>14301714
>this fact is wrong!
it isnt tripfag
https://youtu.be/ZcG5IBNg04A
Should get another clip of mine now that it's broke in, was pretty harsh at first.
>>14301665
By so much better you mean so much worse than literally every other engine configuration?
I bet you think Harleys sound good... you ultra pleeb.
Inline 6 is the GOAT to be honest family
>>14301763
Inline 6 sound like an old lady pussyfart. No good.
>>14301720
I was actually quite disappointed after buying a car with 5.7L HEMI. It sounds way worse then 4.6L of my old Mustang. Just a plain modern engine with no soul in it
>>14301742
>Cold start.
>Revs engine.
why
>>14301786
Gotta put your rings to the test
>>14301786
because idiots
>>14301786
That was 2.5k
>>14301784
Is there a better sounding v8 than the 4v 4.6 Ford?

>>14301784
Welcome to modern exhaust systems. Pretty much any new car needs an exhaust to really sound good.
hnnggggg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzDoYp9iu9k
>>14301814
Yes, the original Boss 302.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcS4lzgY2Do
>>14301814
Yes, it's called its older brother, the Windsor 302.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ow54dR3-7A
>>14301665
Because they are so much better than other engine configurations
>>14301841
In that same vein, GT350R

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UD48OX1wu14

Yeah, Windsors do.

These are BMW Euro S50B30 powered cars aka the E36 M3 Euro engine.
>>14301841
>>14301852
Pretty much any high-revving Windsor.

V512 sounds better
>>14301866
Sounds like a dog with gas. 0/10 shit.
>>14301897
what
the
fuck
>>14301679
What's the switch on the trunk say?
>>14301930
OFF
>>14301930
its a battery cut-off
>>14301685
M5, Carrera GT more than any other.
>>14301930
>>14301940
>>14301941
Just realized. Since that video. We took off the big old red sticker and replaced it with a label that just says OFF on one side for a little bit of sleeper appeal. It passes tech at the strip so why not. You can kinda see it in this pic if you zoom in
>>14301665
Because LRLLRRLR repeat
>>14301786
That revving was so crazy mang, surprised his engine survived that crazy 2.5k rpm
>>14301712
desu i5s are my favorite
econobox enough to not kill me at the pump in la
power enough to fly by (average) people
>>14301665
>typical American v8
I hate the choppy idle sound
>bulb bulb bulb splutter warble
then the rest is just a short fart
Not very powerful but get to experience v8 everyday
>>14302485
Dude, it's got a turbo right in the middle. That's awesome
>>14302499
That's belt driven dude. It's a supercharger not a turbo.
>>14302499
Wish all turbos were that easy to change out.
>>14302499
Fuck I'm stupid sometimes. How did I not notice
Crossplane v8 is one of the few uneven firing engines. The two power strokes of every revolution are offset by only 90 degrees from each other, leaving a 270 degree rest period, Giving it a bang-90-bang-270 order. Also, between the banks the order is LRLLRLRR. Making the firing order in the exhaust uneven as well.
>>14301897
>the amounts of editing that went into this
This is pure art.
>people think two L4 bolted together sounds good

Angry farting bees

>>14301887
Jesus christ thats amazing
>>14302807
>not wanting 2 farting bumblebees
>>14301665
Implying they don't sound like an obese woman's wet fart.
V8s are about the second worst sounding engines in history.
>>14302817
not wanting 28 and 16 litre 4 cylinder engines
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwJDADkFMGQ
besides I live opposite an engine tuning shop so I hear rotors and v8s so often its boring
>>14301887
The weak car enemies in the Mad Max video game have engines that sound like that.
>>14302848
>He doesn't even know about the V8 vantage
The only v8s that sound good are diesel.
>>14301887
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fCAZulr6iN8
What it reminded me of
>>14301887
holy shit my dick
>>14302981
But the good diesels aren't v8
>>14302991
Never heard of deutz or MAN?
>>14302499
nice meme
>>14301732
>My opinion is fact
You /b/tards crack me up
>>14302141
wrong way round m8
fuel economy of a 6 with the power of a 4
they do sound like something out of this world though
>i have a b5254s
>>14301665
The general rule is more cylinders = better sound. That's why 4 cylinders sound okay, 6 cylinders sound good, 8 cylinders sound great, 10 cylinders sound amazing and 12 cylinders make you cum buckets.
>>14301679
why does it sound like rough idle?
>>14301694
>implying w12 isn't master race
Half the attraction of V8s doesn't stem from the sound itself, but from the autocultural connections they subconsciously make you draw to muscle cars and badassery. Take a minute to think about whether you'd still like V8s if all they were known for were tractors and garbage trucks.
>>14303510
V8s are known for being powerful and fast. Because they are.
>>14303553
How can an engine be fast?
>>14303569
by not being slow
>>14303569
torque
>>14303510
It was also a lot smoother than the inline 4 cylinders most americans had.
>>14303586
>torque
So Diesels are the ultimate race cars?
v8 usually sounds like shit unless its flatplane
v8's sound like elite garbage
Inline 6 on a Nissan that's been tuned well
>>14301814
I think not. Modular Ford's sound gorgeous when set up right...even when set up in super-squishy-comfy-econo packages they still sound alright. Very distinct with open exhaust too, impossible to miss the sound of one firing up in a crowded parking lot
>>14303831
top kek
V8s are literally nothing but a bydlo detector. Chances are if you fancy a V8 over a V6 or V10, there's something wrong with your brain.
>>14303569
crank geometry
But inline 5s are the best engine and everybody knows this
all v8s sound the same
>>14301763
inline 6 with dual pipes sounds like sex
>>14303890
Good impression of a clueless woman anon.
>>14303429
Are you really that fucking dumb?
>>14303889
I5 sounds so fucking sad.
W16
The sound of a civilisation at it's peak and manipulating elements to do their bidding.
>>14301679
I have seen enough of your car it's getting pretty old. No pun intended.

BMW sounds much smoother and powerful, thanks for ending the silliness.

Is this the rare footage of what finally pushed Elliot Rodger off the edge?

Thats funny, I thought there were no women on the internet but I mustve been wrong.

yeap
BMW wins no contest
Charger sounds like absolute garbage
>>14301665
Nothing but idle but here ya go.

>>14304569
Producing sound takes energy, using that energy for motion instead of noise makes it more efficient and therefore powerful.
Wouldn't you know it, the BMW is 4L and 414hp while the Dodge is 6.2L and 290hp. That's pure power throwing you across the earths surface without any theatrical nonsense.
>>14301709
>no
