Okay, a straight piped CGT sounds better than a LFA IMO.

Dunno. The induction sound still on the LFA still better and also one of the reason is LFA revving up to 9500 rpm (as opposed to 8400 rpm for the Carrera GT).

Ofcourse it does. That is why LFA acoustically has a very different sound at 4500, 7500 and then 9500 rpm.
The piston speeds at 9500 rpm would be a lot faster compared to 8400 rpm given the same bore and stroke and will affect the engine induction sound other than the exhaust emission velocity approaching incredible high. It is going to make the engine sound approach much closer to an F1 racing car sound in terms of the dense high-pitched shriek getting progressively more high pitch.
It is apparent in the video that Lexus LFA's sound from 8000 - 9500 rpm becomes completely different and approaches border line mayhem.
