In my GR86. It sounded ok but I didn't needed it. You actually had to pull a connecter. Thanks YouTube.

Oh come on. Let us hear a sound clip, before and after.

Sounds better off.
I would be ashamed to have a vehicle that generates fake engine noise.
More vehicles than people think have fake engine noise, including some F150 Ecoboost trucks.
People want some noise and good sound insulation. Unfortunately for us that’s the only way stock to do it without some crazy powertrain.
Even the Corvette ZO6 has augmented sound.
Disabled it on my tundra. Don’t need fake v8 noise in a twin turbo 6.

In the 90’s, was there any “real” HP gain? Because I always wanted to get an exhaust for my Maxima SE 5 speed. Luckily, I never could afford it back then. I did slap 235/40-18’s on

Amazing and looks like it didn’t sell….
It came with the Shelby Mach-E. I’m not sure if too many were sold otherwise.
Blame it on consumers. They want a quiet ride with engine sounds.
I'm a fake engine sound owner too. I drive a 2017 Chevy SS sedan with the 6.2 LS3 engine. When I first got it, I planned to remove the sound tube, but over time, I've actually grown to live with it. Unlike those high-pitched, smaller engines, this V8's sound isn't far from the real deal. It adds that classic 427ci rumble, which isn’t bad. My ultimate plan was to swap it out for an actual LS 427 but at my age, who knows? 
If I ever own an EV with fake sound I'll be sure to make the sound it projects to be "6.0 PowerStroke diesel".

If they sell a kit that mimics the 1980’s MB turbodiesels I’d spend up to $5,000 for it. I find the diesel clatter to be not only soothing but nostalgic.
