can't believe this thread went into 2 pages. haha.

there is no way in hell a 2.0 Liter Boxer engine can ever sound like a V10/V12 High output vehicle. Try getting the V8 to sounds like a 4-banger.

Whats with all the people rejecting a perfectly good question from the OP? It is possible: http://www.formula1.com/news/headlin...1/6/12134.html

Straight from FIA. You can get F1 sound from 4 cylinders... And of course prototypes were made and tested so yes its possible with lots of money involved as well.

The ruling has since been changed to V6 for 2014 but that doesn't mean its not possible. You just need higher revs. They are doing this with 1.6L for those who say it cant be done with 2L :laughabove:

For those wondering why I am even posting about F1 engines. The LFA was designed to sound like F1 engines.

I'd much rather have it sound like a BRM V16... 1.5L of supercharged fury from the 50's that would make muscle cars wet their pants in fear from the sound.... both thunderous in the lower band and high pitched wailing in the upper band. The 86 is too refined and not 'bad assed' enough for the sound though...
