Does anybody know on how to make an X3 accent sound like a Integra Type R they sound so sweet.... No swaps just using the plain old 1,5L

Thanks

If you want to your car to sound like an acura...Get an acura.

I like my Hyundai and do not want it to be anything like a Hackura!!!:rambo:

Stick with what you got. Hyundais with big exhaust = Farting/pooping sound.
Trust me!!!!

Hey 98-GS

You are the first that I know who wants to have you Hyundai sound like a Honda

Would it not be better if you install the divice that gives you the sound of turbo BOV?

in order to make your car sound like tha you'll need the following....

DOHC
intake
header, NO cat-back exh.

You will need to increase the valve lift and duration (causing valve overlap) which means you will need a new cam. You will also need to raise the engine's capable redline by about 3000RPM, which would require basically a completely reworked head (new cam, rollers, valves, etc), new pistons and rods and a lightened crank.

Basically, it won't happen.
