[somilror]

I’ve a 2007 ve sv6 with rear muffler delete, is it possible to get pops and crackle with this type of exhaust mod by getting my car tuned

Err, I don’t think so, but I’m sure you’ll soon find out.

I think you will find you will also need to delete the cats as they won't last long with a pop & crackle.

Quite possibly if the ECU allows it. The V8 ECU allows it as my SSV has the snap crackle and pop on overrun. Tune was done by a previous owner so I can’t really advise any further on the technical aspects of it.

Not necessarily. My SSV still has cats as I don’t smell petrol when it’s idling on petrol. I’d like to hope that the car yard I bought it from wouldn’t sign off a roady on a car with knocked cats either, although granted it’s difficult to trust a used car yard.

Maybe I'm thinking of something else. The pop & crackle I'm referring too is that one where you allow fuel to enter the exhaust. I have what you have on certain gear changes, normally changing down and going down certain declines on my travels.

Maybe what I'm thinking of is not pop and crackle and called something else?

Yeah, it fires the injectors on the exhaust stroke to burn in the exhaust. Probably fires the spark plug at the same time to ignite the fuel but I’m not sure as I don’t do ECU programming.

As long as it’s not an excessive amount of fuel it won’t hurt the catalyst. Some modern manufacturers do it from the factory like Hyundai with the I30N.

What are the benefits with doing this?

Nothing,
apart from making fart noises, and/or sound like glorified go-carts, or/and fart boxes,
and the look at me syndrome.

There is nothing better than the sound of V8, with a nice exhaust to produce the appropriate note.

Were too old to understand, it's something only a P plater gets excited about.
