Get ready to laugh. I have attached a zipped MP3 to this message that you've got to hear.

I'm fixing this soon, but I had to record this because it's just too darn funny. This is what a straight exhaust sounds like from a D15B7 with no catalytic converter, and no muffler going 0-80mph. I wound it all the way to 6800 in both gears. The top of 2nd gear is 71 mph in my car. Yes, the clip is 20 seconds long. It's a 1.5L, what do you expect?

Cold Air Intake
D15B7 .020 over
stock manifold
'88CRX downpipe
factory mid-pipe
straight 1 7/8" pipe where the muffler used to be

The recording was done on a G3 Wall Street laptop, with a Apple Desktop Mic that was pinned to the tailgate by the hatch glass almost 2 feet above the exhaust pipe.

Pics of this 1.5L can be found in this thread...

I hope this works If there's no attachment, then I guess I did something wrong. If that happens, feel free to laugh at me instead of my car.

Enjoy!

 

I just tested it and on my computer, it downloaded as "attachment.php". If that happens, change the file extension to .zip, then unzip it, and it should work.

 

wow that is almost as loud as my 1980 Toyota tercel with stacks out the hood and it will only go 60 maxed out

 

hmm.. im surprised it not more highpitched weed whacker sounding :chuckles:

:thumbup:

 

Ya, I was surprised, too... very tractor-like at low RPM's. And I don't mean lawn tractor, either... more like the ones you see around cows and corn fields, etc. It sounds like a much bigger engine than it is.

 

hahaha

 

Yikes it sounds like a dirtbike!:thumbup:

 

hehe at least it doesn't sound like a huge can of bees
