I'm sorry, it's fake
Better tell Pistonheads then, they did an article about the (I think) Japanese tuning company that make the equal length headers.

Having not had the pleasure of hearing a CSL in the flesh, I'll give another vote for the 993 with the sports air box. Between 4,000 and 6,000 rpm sounds glorious.

I had a custom exhaust system made for MR2 roadster a couple of years ago, always loved the noise it made, however I have just fitted an injen induction kit and oh lordy! The induction noise is on another level to the exhaust, sounds utterly amazing. Discreet it is not!

My old DC2 with an AEM V2 intake sounded absolutely sublime. God I miss that...

Yeah ok, but it's still emerging from the intake (Supercharger in front of two pressurised carb on this engine). wink

As far as the best induction noise nothing, no nothing beats a Honda NSX at full revs. I still miss mine after 18 months.

For me its a Mini 1380 on 45 Webers. Takes me back to screaming down the back roads in mine and hearing that sound.

I've always liked the intake sound of the 917 (the exhaust isn't all that nice at all, just sort of farty). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha2ZqP-Hnvc

Also, the McLaren F1 GTR: http://youtu.be/OFLQAEiO7xo?t=3m18s
