Sorry Biggoggs , I just can't imagine anyone thinking that the sound of a hair dryer equipped whipper snipper sounds better than any V8 let alone a blown big block.
`Hair dryer equipped whipper snipper'? The Dodge sounds like a heavy-duty kitchen blender. I'd choose a Windsor or Cleveland for sound over that. It sounds lazy, like it redlines at 3k or something.

This sounds alright, it has much more character (6.8MB WMV of... a hotrod of some sort).

Rollin: I prefer a six too, but I still appreciate a decent 8. Perhaps something got left out, I would've thought the Dodge would sound deeper than the Supra...

As for the RB in the Mustang, come on guys, it just has to look fast for the camera, and they'll dub a V8 track to it.

If that is the case why does your now tubocharged worked straight 6 only pull 14's? If I was to pull up next to you in my wonderful sounding N/A V8 you would be the one that gets:

By the way I would by a Typhoon over a GT............

Erm, no, not quite. they've gone the rb to try to appeal to both the muscle guys (cos its a mustang) and the ricers..... it will most likely not have a v8 dubbed over, and the plot will make some sort of song and dance about it having an RB in it
