The best sounding LSJ ever!? I think so
I want to meet this guy and figure out what his exact setup and list of mods is, because I want my car to sound like this soooooooooo bad. Most amazing sounding Cobalt I've ever heard.

Wow are you tone deaf or something?????? Sounds nothing like that. I think it has a nice deep throaty sound to it. And you can even hear the strokes, which makes it sound even more amazing.

Alright, I'll respect your opinion. But I personally love the sound. But it would be even more badass if it sounded like a scoobie. lol

The reason they sound like that is because of unequal length manifolds...sure it sounds cool, but it's bad for performance.

Headers...

But yes, they are not the BEST for performance, however a few companies (Crawford, AMS, among others) have compared the benefits of switching to EL headers, there is a performance gain, but its not overly huge. Its within 10hp, 10tq of each other. Personally not worth it to me, or many others, I love how my Suby sounds.

Well that's the reasoning behind the UEL manifolds.

"Oh ****...we gotta put manifolds on this thing....how about....RIGHT HERE, YEAH!"

I do agree though. Very weird motor to work on.
