A while ago I mounted a small sticky microphone inside the engine compartment. I placed it near the air box, but it has since been removed. I ran the wire between the hood seal, through the door jam and into the car where it was plugged into a laptop :lol:. I then used windows sound recorder to make my own recording of the car; starting, accelerationg, and revving a bit in third gear as I drove on a DESERTED road. I have now hosted the sound file for the curious, I think it sounds pretty mean. Make sure to wear headphones or turn up the volume. Maybe it'll sound familiar to some of you :wink:

FYI, the car is a 2003 GLS 1.8t with Tiptronic, engine mods at the time of recording included an UPsolute 1.0Bar chip and nothing else. There have been additions since then

hehe, i like how at the 10 sec. point the turbo says "HELLO!" :wink:

 

[Wapptor]

Yes it really is the best part isn't it. Maybe some of the more technically inclined people here can help jeffsu with the problem, I don't know shit to say the least...

lol, nice sound band :thumbup:

 

[jwk175]

niiiice :lol: and it does sound familiar!

 

[nyibpass]

just right-click on the file, and then rename "engine" to "engine.wav".

Alternately Wapptor could just rename the file and relink.

 

[Wapptor]

Yes I'll do that ASAP

[Wapptor]
