    Your gen 3 needed to be watered so it grew up and became a real charger. 3's are nice..V's are wonderful!

    GenV's actually aren't as LOUD as GenIII's...but they are more efficient...make more power on a larger pulley...and this is just the idle...I've got a video WOT somewhere...

    I had a P&P Gen 3 running 3.2 etc before the Gen V. Take my word for it or not.. the Gen V is the better sound. It's more mature, a grown up whine, not an infant whine.

    Back at ya guys.

    A stock intake generally kills most of the noise.

    This was sold as a family sedan.

    Hence the silencer ports which aid in lowering noise at part throttle.

    Your motor needs to flow well enough to utilize a smaller pulley.

    its a little bit louder than the genIII ya but the thing I noticed when i did the swap was the little constant "whistle" you get from 1500 to about 2300 rpm... ill be just cruising down the road next to someone and most the time they will look at me like "wtf?" and have even had guys yell and ask what it was....
    "My car is a racecar like Planet Fitness is a gym...."
