I think the one starting at 0.22s is my favourite It's the only N/A one out of the lot too!

They all sound great but N/A really stands out as the best sound.

Well, you certainly don't get that sound from a diesel lol.

ya cant beat the sound of the n/a engine!..
i thought the turbo'd engine would sound better and louder tbh :s

Ill have to get a vid of my car once its up and runing again

the reason the turbo sounds different is that the exhaust sound is masked by the turbo

im running both the na 20v and the 20v turbo

i like both noises, the exhaust sounds nicer on the 20v the induction noise on the 20vt is amazing

do drive every day i like the 20vt as its only noisy when you want it to be
the 20v is noist all the time

Ewwwwww. Think I'm going to be the odd one out here.....

That 20v at 22 seconds sounds rough as hell to me. I'd hang my head in shame if my Coupe sounded like that. Utter travesty.

No doubt with an induction kit and some OTT exhaust. Just strikes me as over the top and lacking a refined quality sound. It's just noise - sounds like the exhaust is blowing its that bad.

The normal sound of the 20v engine when paired with the oem set up I firmly believe sounds best. Sorry
