[QUOTE=masraum;12066687]I was going to say, "what the hell is bubble tune?"[/QUOTE-]

Bubble, burble, tomata, tomato. 😆

The neighbor kid brought a Toyota Supra GR. Pretty cool car, but not mycup of tea. He burbled it up with a tune. Dad said he told him it was a pipe that he put on. I was following him down the street to our respective houses. He was snap-cracking-poping-pinging-and pooping around the corner when a 85YO was stepping off the curb to cross and he almost went down. He must have thought someone was shooting at him. The kid just couldn’t keep his foot out of the burble. aaHe would short shift just to get into his lovely sounds.

^^^ You might be surprised at how much money is spent to get that type of sound.

The Civic SI forum is full of new owners that want to pull their down-pipe and exhaust system to get more burbles....ready to trash their brand new exhaust. If it's called a 'mod'...they will buy it.

Lots of guys on the BMW forums do the same.

I like a little burble when I lift, but loud snap, crackle, and pop, no thanks.

What I think is really stupid is when you see guys hitting the rev limiter while parked, to get the snap crackle pop. I just don’t understand that. Kids…

And all the guys looking for short shifters to replace the ones on their brand new Honda SI

Honda is known for having some of the slickest shifters on the market...but they will still pull it out because it's a mod to help them slam-shift it.

I was walking downtown and thought there was a shootout a block ahead. Nope.
Bam Bam Bam Bam cannon fire.
I was once close to a real shootout which was quieter.
I'm sure the folks eating their $200 dinners outside on Main Street appreciated that.

But hey guess what? This city just passed a law against the cops pulling anyone over for loud exhaust and missing tags.

Another take on the same system

He did a great job explaining how it works. I've looked at them for my 84
Let us know how you like it. Did you get it with the sound arrestor?

I'm someone who rather likes hearing a car burble. More so, I'm happy people are enjoying their cars. It's a clear indication they're enjoying life. That it's a Lamborghini, or modded KIA, is rather moot.

Kinda off the subject, I think. I have one of his Pulse Pipes, and i hope it has a little to no burble. I had the hardest time getting him to ship the thing after i paid for it. it took 4 months to get to me with a many excuses of why it wasn’t shipped. I hope I like it! What I find hellacious is his statement about the construction of the pipe. Especially the “impeccable Welds”. Color on welds is not good. Laying down a weld that looks like a stack of dimes is good cool. Color bad, dimes good. Color is caused by contaminating gases from the air to oxidize the weld. But on the inside, if you don’t back purge with an inert gas the weld will sugar. Sugar bad, stack of dime good. So both sides of the welds didn’t have enough purge. The color and the sugar show poor workmanship and substandard welds which are much more prone to failure. The other thing is the undercut weld bead, the “Bird Turd” weld beads. Another sign of poor workmanship.

I used to enjoy Bisimoto’s shows, and loved the accent.

Plus infinity on that.

I agree with the enjoyment of having your own thing on your car, and that people are into cars, but to make that much racket is infringement on my thing. Sitting in my backyard enjoying the warm weather, watching the hummingbirds birds feed and enjoying my coffee or beer, depending on the time of day. When the windows and pictures on my wall’s rattle, and the birds scatter, then that is too much. Take it out of the neighbors and where people congregate. Most are enjoying their life more without it.

Man I have heard so many BMWs in my area with wide open burble tunes, like they're just dumping gallons of fuel into hot turbos. I absolutely hate it, like rolling gunshots.

Living in a rural area, I don't hear many loud cars.
The huge 'worked over' pick-ups are a whole diff story. Can hear them from a mile away and the tire noise is part of it after the 8 inch straight out exhaust pipes.

My other noise complaint is from the constant circling of small planes on nice summer days. I live close to a lake with lots of sun-bathers on sunny days.
They are louder than any cars that drive past.
If it's a cloudy day...no airplanes. (nothing for them to see)

It’s been in a box since the engine is out. It’s gonna be one of the first things I put on after gettin her all wrapped up. Yup, got the insert just in case. From the install video, it was the sound I was looking for, as far as the HP increase, our SC’s Warp Core is long in the tooth so I’m not sure I would see an improvement. But still, I can’t wait. If I could only make the time I need to work on it…..

Wow!!! Did they sell you one of the “blems”???? I know that was an option when I purchased mine. I haven’t looked at it for some time but I do remember that the finish wasn’t on par with what I was expecting. Clamp marks and scratches. Now I am afraid to look at the inside….[emoji51]

Especially for what I paid for the dang thing and the waaaaiiiiiitttttttttttt

I don't know the car scene in your neck of the woods, but here in LA it is by far predominantly the BMW guys/d-bags who run this tune on their cars. These are the bros who do 50-60 mph down city streets, floor it from every stoplight, etc.

actual burble tune sounds obnoxious, its like farts in a can.
And it does it continuously on decel.



My Cayman ( no Illusions of grandeur here: its a base model 2.7 987), has no tune other than power tune to undo the tax neutering (211hp) and bring it to 10 something horses over the stock 245. Carnewal exhaust mod so it has a bit of sound, but no obnoxious drone like on open secondary cats.

It will on decel, when engine braking, produce a bit of a bark and rumble in the exhaust
Its very short and very specific .. it sounds a bit mean, kinda like the car means business and sounds nothing like a burble toon..

And I don't go around residential neighborhoods with WOT high revs.. Cause quite frankly , that's how the entire car culture is going to end up regulated : by causing nuisance to others.

I wonder if my B&B headers at full chat would drown out their burble? (aka bubble lol)
Be fun trying.
