Default 3.0L with a 3" straight pipe... sounds ridiculous.

I wish I had a sound clip. I'll try to get one made. Was doing some exhaust work and I thought I'd **** off the neighborhood by starting up Argento before I put the muffler (SFR) back on...

Two words: Daytona 500.

Damn sweet sounding.

I once started my car with open headers. The sound was unbearable.

I ran my subaru with open headers. You couldn't talk to the person sitting beside you in the car with the windows up, even if you were yelling, lol.

A 944 would probably be a bit quieter, since it most likely doesn't have 4 burned exhaust valves like my subaru does
