exhaust sound...

[kingston]

thankfully my car doesn't have a Honda sound. its not raspy at all, it sounds close to a subie

anyways i have 2l engine with a header, and 2" piping stock exhaust with muffler.

im looking to get even more of a Subaru sound.

i've been told to go 2.5 piping from cat back with a 20" glasspack. i don't know much about how it works but any suggestions on a deep throaty sound?

Get a subie? Not bashing your car by any means, but I think it would be difficult to achieve a boxer exhaust tone with a Kia.

Get a subaru then. J/K

As stated above it is a function of the engine design, that is why it is distinctive.

get some cams with more aggressive valve timing. maybe that will make your car sound more burbly.
or just get a subie :)

Deep throaty sound out of a 2l kia motor? I don't see that happening no matter what you do, swap a v8 or subaru engine.

take one of your spark leads off, it will run like shit but boy will it sound like a subi :D

subies are horizontally opposed engines aka boxer. thats what gives them their rumble. your best bet is to go 2.25 exhaust piping(ideal for N/A cars) and run headers back and see what happens..(with a highflow cat of course)

I see nothing wrong with a Honda sound, my B18B1 is throaty as hell and sounds amazing.

Close to a subie? Probably misfiring lol.

Hondas sound good if done right.

This thread makes me LOL!

yeah not all hondas sound like shit.

but your best bet to get that scoobaru sound is to just get one. the kia is not going to supply you with that sound
