Default Monty's growl

Mucking around with the camera today I did a few recordings of the Fairmont's exhaust.
Here is the best one, you'll hear the motor stalled up a bit, then a couple of free revs in neutral. http://www.deleted link/pics/fairmont.mp3
Thanks also to John for hosting it

Darin.

I think you know what I'm going to say, Don't you Darren? ;)
Only problem is it's not LWB and lacking woodgrain. :P

Why do V8s sounds so bloody good? Damn. I think I will get a daily driver one day, and it'll be a big V8 cruiser! "Low, loud." Perfect.

Nice sounding Fairmont. What sort of system are you running?

Damn mate, has a great idle to it. You have a nice system. Here is a copy of mine i did a while ago. Dosnt have the deep rumble yours does, for this recording i reved it , unlike you. (only 2 1/2 inch system, genie headers and lukey ultraflow stainless)
by the way the squeek at the start is my dog yawning

XR8fella - I had a listen to your recordings in your sig. Very nice sounding Windsor too.

James - You can't have it!

AnthonyQLD - I have Pacemaker PH4000 headers, stock cats (for now) and a Lukey 3" mandrel bent cat back single system. It has one ultraflow muffler and a hotdog in the tailpipe. I've been very happy with the system.

Colville - If we're both at the cruise planned for the 14th I'll record it then otherwise we will have to arrange a time

Stevo - Another great sounding Windsor!
