I was walking down the street the other day and I heard an awesome induction roar coming up behind me,now Im not a Holden man and I sure ain't a commodore lover but I knew what was making that sound before I even turned around!

The VN-VP series commodores have to have one of the most distinctive and probably one of the best induction sounds out there!

Now my QUESTION IS what makes VN-VPs different from the rest of the other commodores and why do they sound so bloody good even when they are standard?

I remmember the Highway patrol cars way back then sounded HORN as well....

Any thoughts on why this is so........

I think you mean the EFI V8s? All our NSW HWP cars from that were V8s (they even ran the VL turbos in production longer to fill the gap until the V8 was ready).

The VN-VS EFI V8 has a very short path from the throttle body to the air filter, and no re

Yep sorry I was talking about the V8s.

Like you say commodorenut,the induction roar is actually louder than the stock exhaust.If I had one I would be leaving exhaust standard just so you could hear that beautiful sound.

THANKS
