Product Description Imagine starting up your modern, boringly silent car and the interior is filled with the thrilling sound of a powerful Super Sports Car engine...
SoundRacer fitted into cigarette lighter socket.
Shift in the first gear, hit the gas pedal and the driving experience will really excite you! In every phase of driving - accelerating, decelerating, shifting, cruising and idling - the sound is so convincing that it actually fools your senses to believe that you are driving the real thing, a Super Sports Car!
And when you prefer to listen to your favorite music, just plug in your MP3 player and the music will sound loud and clear in your car stereo system.
No installation, no tuning, just plug into the cigarette lighter socket, select a frequency for the car stereo receiver and turn up the volume.
It's yours for just a little more than a standard Car FM Transmitter and your car will never be boring again. SoundRacer works on most car models in the world, also diesel and FlexiFuels. Automatic transmission is no problem either. Check the SoundRacer Listed Cars for compatibility.

Lots of Fun! April 17, 2010 Dale R. Carter 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
First of all, I have a 4 cyclinder sports car with a killer sound system. With the top down and the sound up, it sounds like it's coming from the engine.
The device is simple to plug in, calibrate and use. It tracks my RPMs perfectly.
Warning, if you do NOT have a GREAT sound system, do not buy this. I turned the bass all the way down and it just does not have the same effect.
Fun, Fun, Fun. May 27, 2010 P. Shaw (Bremerton, WA USA) I have a V-6 Mustang and it now feels like I am driving my 70 Mach-1 which I owned in the Eary 70's. The better your sound system the better the effect will be of the true V-8 Sound. I love it and don't plan on listening to the radio again. For best results try several FM stations with no signal until you find one with very little static. This helps for when you turn up the volume. I think this is the best $40.00 I have ever spent!
Soundracer V8 April 14, 2010 Steve Accomando (Center Line, MI USA) The Soundracer V8 does exactly what its advertised to do. Realistic V8 sound through your car stereo. Very simple to use, plug and play. It has a feature that wasn't advertised that i thought was a nice touch, a plug for a media player, such as an Iphone, or mp3 player. A little expensive though at $50.00, but fun.
Soundracer V8 April 23, 2010 John D. Vance (San Diego, CA) Tons of fun! I could not stop smiling for days; I think I used it more than the radio for weeks. It's a little glitchy (sometimes "loses" the input signal") but well worth it. Would not work on a friend's Highlander but most cars seem OK. What a laugh!
A little flakey but loads of fun! June 23, 2010 Big L (California) Yes, it's a little flimsy.
Yes, sometimes it doesn't work right.
But when it does work, it is AWESOME! And most of the time it works fine up until the point I get tired of it and turn it off.
Here is what seems to work the best for me. Wait until you start the car to plug it in (I assume you've already tuned your radio, etc.)
Slowly start rev'ing the car up to 3000 rpms. As soon as you hear a single beep, back off the revs, then you should hear 2 beeps and you're good to go.
As far as plugging your mp3 player into it, that works too, but sounds like FM. I get better sound using a cassette adapter but this works too in a pinch.
