It’s all about personal preference. We are all here to share info and stuff not to fight so I respect everyone’s preference (I will however fight people over wrong information lol). I have ASC since I have the 4 Cyl Turbo and I don’t mind the fake sound it sounds good even if it’s fake. I don’t really care though because I have a NA V6 with short ram intakes I can drive whenever I want loud noises lol

Haha, yeah somehow I missed that you have the turbo 4 cylinder engine. In that case, I would probably be fine with ASC. With the V6, why make fake sound though? Piping in the actual intake noise is going to sound more real.

Absolutely I completely agree a V6 doesn’t need ASC. That would be pretty annoying as the V6 should make more than enough noise. The only reason Lexus even put the ASC on the 4 cylinder is because they are quiet as **** so they wanted to give people the option to have fake noise on or turn it off if you don’t care for noise. It’s actually not bad I think they executed it well
