closer sound to what you're asking you'll get by removing resonator and exhaust and putting xpipe with magnaflow exhaust. it'll sound pretty good.

if you want a 190e twin cam to sound like a v8 the only thing you're going to have to do is put in the 5.0 v8 the 190e is a front sump like ford. chev is rear you may have clearance issues with the steering box but that',s the only way I can see this conversion happening.

You can not. The only way to get a V8 sound is to put a V8 into the car. Some people say they can make their V6 sound like a V8, but they don',t, they typically just sound so deafening you can',t tell.



Have some fun, why not do a V8 exchange into it?

Impossible, I'm sorry to say. One, you don't have enough cylinders and two, you don't have the cubic inches.

Why use up any money at all? Just drill a couple of holes in the exhaust pipe in front of the muffler.
