Holly hell.... I've watched and read every piece of gear head content I can get my hands on on the last 10+ years and I still learned a TON from this. Jason Cammisa is an absolute legand!
@@Bijiketapang001 and u have to send ur car to japan as the guy who does it doesnt want to send it without him fitting it on and he doesnt travel, he only does it on the cars himself in japan
Jason Cammisa is my favorite automotive RUclipsr! He does a fantastic job of being informative, scientific, and in tune with other enthusiasts. He is someone I feel like I could go have beers with my buddies and have an awesome time hanging out. Exactly who I want to teach me about cars and the internal combustion engine.
Im at 5 mins and I keep taking it back to the beginning ... because I dont want it to END!!! I could literally watch Jason kill it all effin day! I love him and his car brain.
I was kinda hoping you to show the differences between a Lamborghini V12 and an Aston Martin V12. One's a high pitch, one's a grumbling growl. And thanks for joining Hagerty. I'm a fan of you and Jack Baruth.
the same thing with the mercedes v12 shown towards the end, different header design. astons have unequal headers, ferraris have equal length fancy manifolds
Look up: v12 vantage velocity ap headers. The difference in tone between lamborghini’s v12 and aston martin’s v12’s is simply down to the manifold design. The velocity ap design is much closer to lamborghini’s design. Also: the reason an aventador with a brilliant (aka stardropper) exhaust sounds just like a murcielago… the murcielago has equal length merge pipes and the brilliant exhaust for the aventador takes the unequal factory merge pipes and replaces them with equal length ones like the murcielago has.
I love this guy. Very charming. Right mix of info and humor. He can be funny, but not trying to be a comedian. Well done sir. As a drum student.....I liked his tapping to explain engine pulse sounds.
The V8 in the BMW M5 is a noteworthy mention that Jason missed. It sounds like a flatplane crank V8 even though it is a crossplane one. It retains the first-order and second-order balance advantages of a crossplane V8, while sounding much smoother, almost like a flatplane V8. That is a result of a clever design having the ‘hot-V’ layout and with exhausts crossed over.
So... I subscribed thanx 2 Jason Cammisa. He’s far more knowledgeable than I’ve ever given credit for. I like his “prove me wrong” and/or “told you so” way of explaining stuff!
That was a BRILLIANT explanation! I particularly liked the examples shown with the hand taps on the table. That made it really simple to understand. With THAT said, a cross-plane crank Chevy V-8 sounds SOOOOO much better than a flat-plane crank V-8, IMO. That's one of the main reasons I'm not totally in love with the new Corvette Z06 and would rather have the E-Ray. The E-Ray looks like a Z06 but has the wonderful exhaust note of the Stingray. Same thing with the Mercedes AMG GT Black Series. It's a beast of a car, but that flat-plane crank engine in it produces an exhaust note that sounds like ass, IMO. I would love to get one, yank that engine out and drop in a built naturally aspirated AMG 6.2.
@@jetplume 12 grand + sending ur car to japan, the dude who does them doesnt build them and send them out, Savage garage already tried to get it but he refuses to send it and let someone else get its design
And this is why VR6 >>> I-6 >>>>>>>>>>> V-6. Kudos to Jason for being an automotive journalist/RUclips personality who actually knows the engineering aspect of cars instead of reading off press releases.
Great lesson..!! I've had a couple of Subarus and driven many more. They have fun engines and that sound has character aplenty. There's also the weird (but wonderful) TVR AJP V8 engine. It's a narrow block V8 (75 degrees) with a flat-plane crankshaft, which makes its firing sequence like a heartbeat between banks of cylinders badum, badum, badum... It's a REALLY angry sound. My 4.5 litre Cerbera was dyno'd at 410bhp and had exhaust ends similar to those you'd see on a Stratos - conical shaped so they actually "trumpeted" their song at everything within a fairly wide radius. It was antisocial on one hand - it was considerably louder than even my 250bhp Caterham - but on the other hand it sang proudly of its capabilities.
Excellent video, as always from Cammisa. An interesting example of how exhaust pulses change the sound we hear is the 4.4L V8 from BMW. The current N63 and S63 use a “hot vee” layout, placing exhaust manifolds near each other. That enables BMW’s S63 (used in the M5 and M8) to cross two exhaust pipes from the opposite bank and mix the pulses evenly (for less turbo lag). As a result, the M5 and M8 (S63) sounds very different than the M550i and M850i (N63) even though the engine architecture is the same except for exhaust routing.
@@Peanutdenver they kicked JC out, made less RUclips content, threw out JC related videos, made their reviews more exclusive (paid). And their viewer count dropped.. Well good on them for making people pay to watch shitty reviews.
Have missed Cammisa. His spot on R&T Head to Head with the bearded dude was excellent and so is this show. Subscribed. Mmmmm Pagani Zonda, best sounding car ever.
The Sound in life it's amazing how it works. Whoever debunked the way to make engines sound like an F1 race car it's one of my favorites sounds. I think the Lexus LFA it's one of the best cars sounds in history of cars exhaust systems. But That's my opinion. Great show Mr Jaso....
Such a great video. I'm trying to learn more about cars and this uses the right level of detail and complexity. Also JC is really entertaining and clever.
The year is 2050. This video is but an archival memory of a long forgotten era of something called the 'engine' and its melodious sonnets. It was a happier time.
@4:03 Thanks for answering a question which was making me wonder "How do some STIs sound nothing like I know an STI sounds?"! Now that I know the answer, I strongly prefer unequal length headers, that base growl is amazing! 😎
Love it! These videos are like the “cliff notes” for car lovers! What to know and easy way to understand a particular thing car related? Watch these videos! Love it..and thanks!
This totally explains one of the reasons why I think the Aston Martin V8 Vantage and Ford Mustang 289 sound SO good! Their firing order's exactly the same.
I used to have an STI 22B which my wife got to drive. I bought her a BRZ for a birthday present - within the first week of ownership she had worked out that she needed a set of aftermarket unequal length headers to make it sound any good
Your car measures RPM on the crankshaft. When the RPM exceeds the set threshold, your car turns off fuel delivery (and/or the spark in some situations) which will immediately lower the RPM below the threshold again, thus resumuing normal operation ( at least until the rev limiter is reached again). Not sure there's enough to make a whole video on the subject but hopefully you found this useful :)
@@butteredcrumpet but what I also want to know is how it worked on old cars. I know with today’s car a computer can shut off air, fuel or spark at a preordained limit. But how’d it work for cars of the 60’s and 70’s. I know that this topic wouldn’t fill a episode but with related topics it can fill 5-6 minutes
@@richardmoore6493 back in the day they had clever solutions for this, the ignition could be cut off in a car with a rotor / distributor using centrifugal force, when it reached that amount it would cut off
@@butteredcrumpet I believe in most applications it shuts off both spark and fuel because fuel cutoff can't react quickly enough on its own and if you only cut spark and continued to pump fuel into the combustion chamber when spark resumed you might get a nasty bang.

All you have to do is put equal length headers on your Subaru and it will sound like a Civic. Best subtle dig I've heard in a while, well done.
Mine doesn't quite sound like a Civic, but that might have something to do with the big cams that are in it also 😁

I have to say I too was impressed with his impressions.

Genius as Mr. Cammisa is, I'm glad he had to focus on those rhythms as much as I did...
thank you for picking up Jason! my goodness hes does justice to car journalism
Glad you touched upon how some exhaust configurations result in greater power -because that matters more than sounds for the sake of sounds.
It does to you and me but apparently not to most gearheads
