Best Sounding Injected V8

[Ryan]

I reckon the new 6.0L VE SS, with quad exhausts, will sound awesome. :Reverend:

[FORDEBV8]

i love the sound of an 347 stroker

I agree the 304/308 injected 5ltr sounds tops.

I might like to change my answer now.
Herd a TT Soarer can't spell it, Up my street just remembered it took off and rumbled the windows and the guy stopped and showed me the engine i has seen it many years ago. Didn't know they had TT in there V8's great engine.

[Wezza]

The Holden 5.0L is certainly a great sounding engine, i'd have that as my number 1, the Ford 5.0L probably second, it sounds great also. Can't say i like the sound of the BOSS engine, i haven't really heard an LS2 with a decent system on it yet either.

are you sure its a V8 and twin turbo? = not stock
the 6s were twin turbo factory

[XAGSV8]

Sorry to say but the LS1 is the best one out there followed by the Windsor. Boss is dissapointing.

100% i seen it it was amazing the idle itself was herd in doors rumbling the windows.
When he left it was I honestly can't describe the sound it made as he tapped the limiter and changed Something special it was.
But even a stock v8 lexus engine sounds great.

Its not standard I6-TT Factory , V8 NA factory the TT job was aftermarket.

Dont know of any twin turbo factory soarers. just the V8s or Twin Turbs 6s

this information is definatley correct......
never been a TT V8 soarer

[macca_779]

I've driven a VE SS and they still cound crap. The Holden 5L is one of the best sounding V8's in the world.

Your probably right aftermarket but it was fantastic to here it run.
I was told Lexus make a great V8 engine.

i traded the EB wagon in the other week for a 5L VP calais, and yes it sounds awesome. i think it's 3inch system with headers, but the ford 5.0L are nice too, my mates EF XR8 sounds absolutely nuts. and sorry for being a traitor but the VN/VP 5L are weapons,

I agree. You need to spend up a full (decent) exhaust, decent CAI and wring it's neck before they even get close to sounding decent....
2 mates - 1 a BA GT-P, 2 a VYII SS ute
Mate #2 has spent more trying to get the sound and power right than mate #1, and the GT-P blows it away on both from idle to redline!

In tune the VP 5lt is a weapon, Out of tune it's lamb to the slaughter. I know a guy that has a R spec memcal he calls it he made himself, Done a 5.95 0-100 in his VP Exec 5lt, Just the memcal.

[turboute]

My pics
Any AMG V8, they have the best sounding exhausts ever...
Audi RS4 4.2L V8, again a perfect little V8, 100hp/L - lets see if Ford/Holden ever come close to that. (600hp LS2? LOL)
BMW M5 V8
Nissan VH45 with decent extractors.
...
More Euro V8's(& lexus)
...
Ford Holden & other US engines...

[turboute]

Forgot to mention Brabus...(Damn)

[Jeeepers]

Where's the 3V option? :dr_Evil:

well i want one, tell me how i can get one of these, also a calais is a bit heavier than an excecutive and is his manual or auto. a the moment the calais does 7.0-7.2sec 0-100

[ondori]

Audi 4.2L The sound is great, I now want to hear the 4.2 TDI engine

[EBFalcs]

why don't some people post up some sound files and we'll have a vote

Auto, If you log into www.justcommodores.com.au go into the VN-VP section and look for greenfoam, If he is in a good mood j/k's:d he will help you, I hope he still does them.

/late on the scene

The Boss is unreal for a modern engine, most these days sound like vacum cleaners.

But the one that owns them all is that Maserati 3200GT. I was in Mleb yesterday and some old guy ws doing laps (lol true story, I would too) and my god, when he gave it a boot full it shook the ground. I know its a Ferrari engine but whatever, its the best street V8 Ive heard.

Totally agree there....
I've been for a spin in an SL55 AMG and on full song this thing is just horn.
Anyone who's been to an F1 GP will understand when the safety car comes out and does its thing......woohoo!!!

[MITCHAY]

LS1 for me. Love those engines.

[snypereb]

AdzELXR's 5L has the best street V8 note I have ever heard.

[The Monty]

The 5 litre for me. Although I dont like them, they just sound so good.
