I have a ricer question, ...no really Options

I was just thinking, what is is that makes a car sound so crappy, like really the fart can mufflers.
I know of alot of cars that are fast as hell, and have all these mods, and they just sound soo ugly.
I mean its pretty common you see, or hear a honda fartin around your neighborhood, but if Im not mistaken our cars dont sound that way, and I have heard with many diff types of mufflers and exhausts.
Is there a certain cause for that sound....even some cars with good brand exhaust systems just dont sound right.
Im in the turboing process for my gt, and Im trying to avoid farts at all cost....lol

A nice, long resonator will help give the exhaust note a much deeper tone. That's about all I know

The best way to get a better exhaust note, of course, is to swap in a V6 or V8.

the way you get a deeper tone is not by how many cylinders you have, but how many liters are in the engine. Usaully tho when you have 5+ liters you have a v6 or a v8 (like mustangs, camaros, ect.) and when you have a crappy 1.3 liter its usaully in a 4 cylinder honda, acura, ect. MOST of our cars are 2.2 liters, so it doesnt usaully sound that bad. I prefer the mustang sound over a civic anyday,I just dont think it would look/sound right on our cars. I prefer a silent car.
