Honda's engine sound released. Weak. Oh, well, sounds better than Renault's.

Why did they have to go and ruin things and go to V6's. :sad: Bring back the V10s or V12's

Sounds like my old Black & Decker Dustbuster.

It's already been too long.

I don't remember if the winning Honda twin-turbo 1.5L-V6, back in the 1983 to 1988 era, also sounded the same.

shit this makes me really wanna go to austin this year, but the financials won't work out :/

Chief F1 Fan 10-20-2013 06:58 AM

turbo engines always sound worse than n/a. The only good thing for spectators is that the show won't be nearly as loud. Gimme earplugs and n/a any day.

my drill sounds more menacing then that. lol

I'm the exception here, I prefer the sound of a decent turbo F1 motor to a NA. The 100K+ RPM turbine whine and overrun wastegate pop sound great.

Chief F1 Fan 10-21-2013 09:20 AM

:ponder: good point but still, give me the wail of a V8,10 or 12 any day

speedemon90 10-21-2013 05:16 PM

I'm hoping the design of the exhaust will make it sound better... but i love the wastegate sound too, but i want the high wail like chief said also. Give me both!!!

Chief F1 Fan 10-21-2013 05:38 PM

turbo= muffler= no chance dude

speedemon90 10-21-2013 05:42 PM

why does turbo need a muffler??

Chief F1 Fan 10-21-2013 05:48 PM

:doh::doh::doh: the turbo acts like a muffler. so much to learn grasshopper

:rofl: I don't know man, I don't work on cars or know that much in depth knowledge about the mechanicals. I just love to drive (spiritedly)!

I thought you had an engineering degree. Even if you didn't major in mechanical engineering, you should have taken basic courses such as intro to thermodynamics. :tomato:
