    Bubbling Sound/Feel

    Just wondering about what causes the engine to have that bubbly sensation at higher RPMs? I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about...sounds kinda like blowing into liquid with a straw...

    I don't know what you are talking about but I'm going to take a stab and make a guess at it.

    Exhaust leak. What you hear is the exhaust pulses..... "putt, putt, putt, putt, putt, putt" (one for each cylinder, lol)

    So with that said, does your bubbling sound increase in rate as you accellerate?

    Oh...doh I first felt/heard it when my V6 was bone stock...hehehe. There is no volume increase as I get higher into the RPMs though.
