I have the loudest P1SC I've ever heard.

Wait until the walkaround when I go around the front, LMAO.

Some are louder then others… it has to do with tolerances and spur gears. The slinger or thin 3rd gear is often the culprit. It’s used to transfer oil up and part of self contained arrangement.

Hope that helps…

The sound at an idle is mainly related to the transmission and engine rotating mass. The sound above idle is mostly impeller and can be influenced by your intake plumbing.

Haha, thanks. One of my non-gearhead friends calls my car the "winter warlock" and says it sounds like a blizzard coming down the road.

Loud enough to turn heads at a cruise-in, nothing more.

My D is a little louder at idle than my P was. My friends tell me it's noticably louder when I pull up. It is a LOT louder when you lift, almost sounds like a turbo blowing off, but only lasts for a 1/4 second. And the power increase is ~ 50%....but you will need a more robust collection of supporting parts. Alky or FMIC and a good fuel pump to start.

For the LT1 it comes with an FMU, which is an auxillary rising rate fuel pressure regulator and a framrail mounted 255 pump that augments your intake pump so you can make volume at high pressure.
