Alarmingly so. My v10 is silent. You'd think all those cylinders pumping up and down would make more noise than that, but no! I may get a louder exhaust, just so I know the engine is running.

They sound completely different with a good full exhaust (headers to tip), they absolutely howl. Nowhere near the V8 rumble and IMO, not bad sounding at all. Friend of mine has a full exhaust on his and it sounds pretty damn good. First time I heard it, it was out of sight. Was NOT expecting an F250 to come rolling into view.

Get the diesel, you will regret buying the gas motor.
