I once had in my signature "Soon you will forget that the LS7 ever existed" because of the pending introduction of the LSA and LS9.
I was inferring about engines in general though, not any specific car application.

What about the exhaust note? Does it have the usual 4-cyl rattle when in 4-cyl mode?

That's the biggest struggle they're facing with AFM is the exhaust note when it engages.
They're well aware that it's an issue, and are working VERY HARD on tuning the exhaust so there isn't much difference.

That's all the info I have on that right now, but it is a big concern of theirs.
