Default Listening to exhaust notes live on my car radio

I would like to broadcast my exhaust sound to my car radio. Has anyone done this? Would I need more than an FM transmitter and a couple of microphones taped to the back of my car?

The Corvette is one of the few sports/performance cars built today that doesn't pipe fake exhaust over the radio. Yes, BMW has to do it. This is a good thing that the Corvette doesn't need to--it's organic.

You wouldn't even need the FM transmitter - just use the AUX jack.

It's a fair question, it's a shame no one treats it seriously.

Why is it a fair question? Piping in recorded exhaust sounds? What would be the purpose if the piped in sounds are coming from the item you are piping in?


Oh I get it now.. So you can play the sounds while sitting at a car show... Weak!!
