Talking Different cones on a Dual Cone?

If each brand of cone intake has a different sound when you accelerate, then wouldnt having two different cones on a dual cone intake have two different sounds to it? Just wondering if anyone has thought about this and if it even makes sense. I know they are meant for performance, but people are in it for the whine right?

anything will "work". But you risk stressing/overworking one turbo from the other.

You might set up a harmonic resonance that will affect your car at the molecular level.

Next thing you know, our cars will have to be equipped with Heisenberg Compensators.

You need to go on an in-depth search for your sense of humor.

Got me. You're the winner.

Seriously, I prefer a sugar ice cream cone to one turbo and a snow cone to the other. Sometimes I will substitute a Kiddie brand ice cream cone if that's all I have access to.

Oops sorry. Maybe I need to assume the lotus position, stare at my navel, and find out what happened to my sense of humor.

BTW, I was at the track Friday night (observing) and some character with a beat up mustang had a 90 degree stove pipe elbow sticking up out of the hood of his car serving as a hood scoop. I've heard of redneck, but that was downright appalachian.

Rainbow or chocolate sprinkles? I hear that has an effect on the sound as well.
