I was looking on flea bay to see if anyone came up with any new mods for the 05 when I came on to this add for "fake turbo noi[z]e."


The soundclip is like a GT with chronic obstructive lung disease. They have a banner on the website that reads: Why pay $3500 for a turbo when you can get the same sound for your mustang for just $35? Appearently it gives you a " nice high pitched spooling tone." The harder you hit the gas the higher pitch the spool. It installs in less than 2 minutes in your exhust pipe (sorry GT owners they say you need to buy 2 because you have dual exhust) with an easy to use lock bolt. There is a picture of a fart cannon with the thing inseterted just to show you how hard it is to detect. But here's the catch, its not available in the US its imported straight from Japan.

Forget Caroll Shebly's new V-6 that he ran out at SEMA, all you need is to shove one of these little beauties up the tailpipe of your new V-6 and away you go. Anybody interested in getting together a group buy?

Ooooh!....a "biturbo"! Will it be less conspicuous than the playing cards clothespinned to my wheels for authentic solid lifter and header sounds?

see mr-mstng's key words. translated - RICE! hey, why not just get a whistle and install it in the intake tract? totally undetectable! or drill holes in your pulley to make that "supercharger" sound? don't forget to put the a/c cooling fins and tubes behind your bumper for that interfooler! and finally, paint your hood in black primer aka "CarbonPrimer"! seriously, couldn't they invent something other than a potato to silence the fart can muffler? heh, heh.
