Absolutely, I love moding my bikes for a good throaty induction snarl, high compression saw tooth like exhaust gases, even the cam timing can get touched on for the sound I'm looking for.

Overly large diameter silencers/mufflers drown everything I love about engine sounds, it's just the same loud drone at idle, part throttle or wide open, nasty.

Who on this thread hears a lexus LFA and just gets down right jealous? but yeah a stock 1.5 ltr honda with a 4 inch exhaust is um.... shit, car guys make up words that are kinder, like "it's a little boomy on the highway" but it's just shit in your ears.
