What Sound Tickles Your Fancy

Is it the pssss of a blowout valve, the winding of a supercharger or the pure noise of a built engine..............voice out )

I'll take the deep and powerful tone of a nasty V8 over all of the above.

my buddy's cobra only has a tune, catback, and intake, but boy does it sound nasty. I thought my car sounded mean haha

oh and I heard a 302 fairlane today. damn near wet myself. I love v8's that have real lumpy cams, the ones that sound like they're going to stall out any minute. soooooo sexy

a ZZ572 twin turbo at full tilt down the quarter mile, tires squealing at launch, suspension compressing on the far side of the wheelie, and the whoosh of twin blow off valves and the burble of the 3 inch exhaust at the end of the quarter....

a big block V8 makes the best sound. Any supercharger or BOV sounds would just drown out that sound. Dont get me wrong, a supercharged big block would be amazing, but i prefer the sound of an NA big block

this is in the 2.2 section, so ill post about that :P
in my car i love the sound of the exhaust: loud, deep, and if i let it wind down in gear from high rpms i get some nice deep pops...it sounds amazing :P (for a 2.2 at least)
other then that....
i was watching top gear the other night and heard one of the newer lambo's and the sound made me have a car-gasm
