I decided to upload some DoD exhaust clips, as all I hear people say is that the car doesn't sound good in DoD mode with aftermarket exhaust. I beg to differ, and you really need a subwoofer to enjoy this, but at any rate, I think it sounds pretty badass, actually
I also uploaded one closeby WOT take off (without peeling out). Enjoy!

If you're listening to it on ear buds or cheap computer speakers, it doesn't sound like anything, lol... I don't know what everyone's complaining about, though, DoD sounds just fine. I had my own car pass me in DoD before I recorded it, and that's what prompted me to record it. That, and everyone claiming it sounds like *** in DoD mode with aftermarket exhaust

Well yea, from the inside, it sounds a bit like a helicopter for sure (though I don't totally mind that, lol). I'm trying to show what it sounds like from the outside as a bystander when LS4 owners with aftermarket exhaust in DoD mode pass by, and it's not horrid whatsoever. When you accelerate, you switch into 8 cylinder mode anyway, and accelerating in 4 cylinder mode is the only time I can imagine it would sound like total ***, haha... In other words, I don't know why people are so embarrassed about DoD, it's nothing to worry about!
I understand what your trying to get at tho.

Well, DoD has served me well. I commute about 60 miles a day, of which 40 miles is highway. I don't doubt that DoD has saved me hundreds (maybe thousands, given that I've had the car nearly 5 years, and gas prices DID skyrocket for awhile) in gas. I guess what I mean is: if I was in the market for a new car and it had DoD, it wouldn't turn me off. It doesn't sound as funky as people think in DoD mode with aftermarket exhaust, either, which was what this thread was really all about. The helicopter thing I definitely agree with, but that's sort of unique in a way, when people in my car are saying "sounds like we're in a helicopter". It's not like helicopters have a negative stigma or anything, haha... and helicopter engines are rather powerful, producing well into the 1000s of horsepower

u can kind of hear the helicopter sound in your video. perhaps you should do an in car video. from experience having the car straight piped when dod kicks in its extremely annoying/embarrassing. luckily its only turned on when i take it in for warranty work.

I already said it above, inside the car definitely sounds like a helicopter, and I've had many people say it sounds like they're in a helicopter as well. However, it's not like it's really negative comment

to each his own. i consider someone saying my car sounds like a helicopter as a negative comment. now if someone said "wow man your helicopter sounds just like a helicopter" that would be a compliment. i dont think that the goal of anyone on here is for there car to sound like a that. i think the goal is for the car to sound more like a ls1 car, and less like airwolf.

fair enough. i think a car that sounds like a helicopter sounds like ****. you like it. were just going to have to agree to disagree. ill keep my dod tuned out. you keep dod on. were both happy. i personally think that your exhaust sounding like a helicopter does mean it sounds like crap, and i might be going out on a limb here, but im pretty sure a majority of the members on here would agree with that..
