Okay I know it's a 2.4L vs. 2.0, and they are mufferless bla bla. They cut spark not fuel to make all those pops and crackles when you let off the gas.

Well winter is here, and money is saving, and going to start working on the car around februaryish. Besides Evo III manifold, my exhaust is stock. First mod I'm doing on the car. When I'm done with tuning/fuel, I'm planning on using a Evo III 16g turbo.

My friend has an SRT-4 and he took the cats out, went with 3inch exhaust, with one resonator. If you stand behind the car when he starts it, you can actually hear like turbo spooling sound. When he just cruises around a parking lot you can hear a faint whistle sound. It just sounds so mean. Not to mention when full boost is reached it sounds like a jet.

Just wondering if I do something similar to that 3" one resonater, mufferless, if it will sound similar and what not.

You corrected yourself before you answered incorrectly. The popping and cracking is from low backpressure, because there's no muffler and it's very free flowing. Any car with an exhaust like that will pop and crack similarly. It has nothing to do with the car cutting spark or fuel. I had a Capri with a 5.0 V8 with dual exhaust and cats, no mufflers, and it sounded like an SRT4.

get JET to fab you up a full 3" setup & you'll not only sound better than that srt4 but probably beat it off the line. The turbo spooling sound will come with a bigger turbo.

Smaller. Smaller turbo.
Take a stock Stealth and give it a DP and you will hear the turbos. You can make 5psi just revving it. Small turbos rock.

Get a bigger exhaust and get a metal intake pipe and you will hear the turbo all the time. The metal intake pipe resonates the spool alot, or it did on my old car (CAI).

Hard intake pipe, hard IC piping, and a catless turboback exhaust with a flow-through muffler...that'll be all the awsome noises you want :)

I like the sound a turbo whistling as loud as the whole car it self.
