anybody have any sound clips of their CA18s

i did a search but was only able to find one clip that still had a working link and the quality was crappy.

ive herd that the CA18 sounds better than the SR20.

could anyone compare the sound of the 2 engines.

i have only ever herd 1 turbo 240sx in person and it had the SR swap but with a crappy sounding exhaust (can we say fart can)

CAs do seem to be nice. pretty much the same potential as the SR just less expensive and better sounding.

but from what ive herd you will end up putting more work into a CA as most imported engines have shot turbos and are usually not in as good a shape as the imported SRs

EnzoRWD, whats your email address?

There are 3 mp3 files that are 950K in total, I'd rather get someone to host them because i've only got a dial up connection and it takes ages to send them to everyone :(

i'll have the engine-bay clip up later today, but the idle and dyno clips are up! Just let your fingers do the walking.

the double slash works also, but good looking out!

p.s. That mother ****er sounds mean! I can't wait until I get mine!

What is the diameter of the exhaust and from the turbo back? do you have a cat? When I get mine I plan on having a 3 inch down-pipe, 3 inch test pipe, and 3 inch exhaust, so I'm trying to get a feel for what it might sound like?

On that clip Barrys car only had a 2 1/2" diameter downpipe, my car has a 3" all the way though but the noise is drowned out by the sound of the turbo :ylsuper

Is it me or is the sound of the turbo spooling louder than the motor? Sounds nice!
