I hope spring comes soon!!! Sunday nights with time on my hands..... a dangerous thing! Anywho........ I diddled up a little flash animation for everyone. http://www.mikeatwood.com/V8Buick.html It's about 178k to load, so not too bad. Mike
I think they are TurboMax or something like that. I had Meineke put it on a few years ago... 99 I think. Pretty much stock performance muffler. Mike
ok...I have a guy down at Meineke that does nice custom jobs. I'll ask him about it. I'm in the market for a new system. The car won't pass inspection w/o a new setup
ProFLO ADAM, you should check out ProFlo's. They are kinda quiet at lower rpm's but when you get on it, they have this really harsh rasp LOUD LOUD noise they make. I like them better than flowmaster or any thing else.
Cool animation Mike! :TU: Maybe something like that should be done for an intro page for the BPG? I don't think that the V8buick site could really put that to use anywhere, but the BPG site might benefit more from a cool animation like that.... Just my $.02. COOL!:bglasses:
I could always loops the sound byte a few more times. I just wanted to keep the file size down there below 200k. It loads in 1 second here, but on a dial up it probably more like 30 seconds. I'll play around tonight and see what it does to file size. Mike btw... next time I get time on my hands, maybe I will do up a little animation for BPG too.
Mike....Way coool I had an idea from a picture someone posted the other day - It was of a drive shaft twisted and broken in half.....from Buick BB Torque of course:TU: Could you do something like..... a driveshaft spinning....then bulging and knotting up in the middle.....leading to an explosion. ....smoke clears, twisted and broken sharft underlines "V8 Buick.com.....Got Torque ??" I know...these things only take a couple of twety minutes...right ???:laugh:
Ok....so here is one with a little longer engine sound and graphic shake. 216k I think http://www.mikeatwood.com/V8Buick2.html :grin:
That's better Mike !You were right on the money for loading time for dial-up it took alsmot 30 sec. exactly.Souns good!!:beer :beer :beer
Id like too hear the engine rev a few times then idle... Let them hear that buick. Right now I have a gutted cat and the stock single exhaust but I got a cherry bomb in the stock position with a tail pipe and it sounds sweet and quiet, untill I open her up.
Maybe when it gets a little warmer :grin: Zilla is in a deep sleep yet...... Come on 60* !!! Looks like a month or maybe less and it will be that time again. Mike
Hey Mike...... Wanna try and add this .WAV file to the graphic ?? http://itnmedia.com/alan/bbanthem.wav Mike Garrison "borrowed" it from me for his website.....dont think he'd mind Enjoy
