Just get your self a pocket digital recorder and record
some.

Or just search for engine sound clips and burn them to a CD then play it in
your car.

I did those little tricks already but I want to have it sync up to my engine
rpm. But how???

To have this done from scratch, it will be expensive. All the R&D would
have to be independently done.

Why not invest some money, and have your engine built up to have the
power and the sound! Then you will have the real thing. Why make a
chicken sound like a Turkey!

Or better yet, save your dollars and go out and buy a real good fast
car!

What is that movie, Vanishing Point? Dodge Hemi Heads are the best
sounding engines of all, in my opinion.
I own and drive a 1978 big old long body Dodge van, 318 engine.
www.bundyology.com It isn't a Hemi Head engine though.Someday, I might
check with Wiley Deen and his auto junk yard.He can tell me if he has a
Dodge Hemi Head bolt in engine.Even it it needs rebuilt, no problem for
me.I have rebuilt some engines before.

Exactly.. For the couple of grand you'll spend on getting this device
developed and built you could just build an engine.

I suppose you could figure out a way to make a laptop do the same thing, but
you'd need programming knowledge and also some way to interface it to your
tach.

Put some glass packs on, and one of those exhaust cut out whistles,
(sounds lie a steam factory whistle, sort of,see www.jcwhitney.com
and a Bull Horn and a Air Horn and a Ahhoooga Horn,,,,,

For funsies, get some Visegip pliers and go aronud and squeeze the tail
pipes of cars and trucks flat, almost closed and listen to them whistle.

A microprocessor can generate the sound. Tap off the
speedometer/tachometer lead to get the engine speed (either count
pulses/second or use an RC integrator to average the engine speed and
read it with an analog-digital converter (ADC)).
Adjust the microprocessor sound output based on the engine speed.

The microprocessor's sound output drives a big amp and some serious
weatherproof speakers mounted under the hood and under the rear of the
car.

Should be possible to put it all together for less than $1000 in
single quantities - much cheaper if you want a thousand or more ;-)
