## What is Exhaust Note?

Exhaust Note is not an app that plays back engine recordings. For piston engines, it synthesizes the sound from scratch, every moment, from the firing order created by cylinder layout and crankpin phasing.

Why a crossplane V8 rumbles, why a flatplane screams, why a V12 idle throbs — it all comes from the physics of firing intervals. This app computes that physics in real time.

■ Real-time synthesized exhaust
- Zero recorded samples. Crank-angle integration → per-cylinder firing → exhaust-pipe propagation, computed every sample
- Distinct primary pipe, mid-pipe and muffler model for every engine
- Muffler continuously adjustable from straight pipe to quiet

■ Engine collection
- 22 engine and motor presets: inline-3 through V12, two-, three- and four-rotor engines, a 300 kW electric motor and six motorcycle engines
- 12 transmission presets: manual, sequential, dual-clutch, automatic, EV single-speed reduction and motorcycle 6-speed sequential, paired with compatible powertrains
- Pick a motorcycle engine and the view becomes a motorcycle that leans into corners, with quickshifter, intake and dry-clutch sounds
- Crossplane vs flatplane V8 — same eight cylinders, completely different sound
- Firing order and rumble index shown as specs

■ Pop and bang + flames
- Afterburn pops on throttle lift and downshifts
- Flames at the 3D exhaust tips, same instant and same bank as the sound

■ Tunnel mode
- Reverb that wraps the sound in wall reflections, like driving into a tunnel

■ A living 3D machine
- Crankshaft, pistons and connecting rods rotate in phase with the sound
- Gearbox cutaway: constantly meshed gear pairs and real synchro-sleeve movement
- Observe the mechanism at 1/10 slow motion, or switch to real time for phase match

■ The feel of driving
- Torque-converter launch, rev matching, manual H-pattern shifter
- Haptics on rev limiter, wheelspin, shifts and ABS
- Analog pedals: press position controls pedal travel

■ Electric drive
- Motor, inverter, underfloor battery and fixed reduction in 3D
- Original sound synthesized from motor speed, load and regeneration, without recorded samples
- Simplified battery charge, energy use and regenerative braking

■ Garage, dyno and mechanism explorer
- Name and save engine, transmission, boost, exhaust, body, color and assist combinations; restore the last configuration
- Compare torque/power curves and estimated acceleration with shared vehicle mass and road conditions; optional matching gear ratios for combustion setups
- Move through the operating cycle and choose a gear to inspect the mechanism

■ Circuit driving
- Drive GT and four-door coupe models on the test circuit or an approximate 20.7 km Nürburgring Nordschleife based on public data, with forests and elevation changes
- Adjustable graphics quality and saved accelerator/brake modes, pedal response, steering and assists
- Local best laps are separated by circuit, engine and boost class; the three-rotor, four-rotor, electric and motorcycle powertrains currently keep records on the device only

Power, acceleration and EV battery figures are estimates from simplified simulation, not production-vehicle measurements.

Built by a gearhead, for gearheads.

### 5/5 — 非常好的休闲游戏

*2026-10-20*

能上 W16四涡轮就好了

### 4/5 — Хз

*2026-10-20*

Очень крутой сим но немного трасс и мало кузов добавьте пж ралли, мотокросс,формула 1, wec,наскар. Спасибо за нюрбергринг. Заметьте пожалуйста. Заранее спасибо👍

### 1/5 — 有广告

*2026-10-17*

做得没别人好 时不时就有广告难怪这么少人下载 太拉了

**Developer response:** 请问具体是哪些地方不如其他应用呢？方便的话告诉我们，我们会改进。

### 5/5 — Add more

*2026-10-16*

Add more engine like a diesel engine and more gas engines

### 5/5 — 앤진 바꿀 때 광고 가 아쉽긴 한데…

*2026-10-14*

전기모태 까지나와서 재미있어요!

### 5/5 — 排气音评论

*2026-10-13*

做得很真实 最近一直在玩 看到不断再更新 希望下次更新加入摩托车的排量和发动机模型 摩托车天生高转速期待这个版本

### 5/5 — Amazing and Satisfying

*2026-10-13*

This new update is amazing. I always loved adjusting the motors and listening to exhaust, but this new update makes everything better. The turbos and other forced induction parts are super cool. Would highly recommend. The app is amazing, just what I was looking for.

### 5/5 — More realistic

*2026-10-12*

The game is a lot of fun and I love the way the pistons move and it shows you the 4-stroke and the frame of the car but can you actually design the car based on the engine and the car or truck has door frames and everything else a car needs

### 5/5 — 엔진 시뮬중에선 젤 좋음

*2026-10-12*

요즘 인스타에서 뜨는 허접한 엔진 시뮬앱 해보다 왔는데 그냥 차원이다름..

### 5/5 — 希望里面能有看广告就能有的现实车型，内存不是问题还有赛道的画质希望能高清一点

*2026-10-11*

希望里面能有看广告就有的现实车型、内存不是问题还有赛道画质希望能高清一点

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.16.0 — 2026-10-24

• The speedometer now reads up to each car's top speed, so the needle no longer stops at 320 km/h on faster engines.

### 1.15.0 — 2026-10-23

• New engine: 3.5L V12 Quad turbo, a short-stroke 60° V12 with four turbochargers, its sound tuned against real-car recordings. Selecting it fits its factory quad turbo.
• New forced-induction layout: Quad turbo, two small turbos per bank on two-bank engines such as V and flat engines.

### 1.14.0 — 2026-10-21

• Optimized for iPhone Duo: unfolded, the 3D view and the controls sit on either side of the fold, and half-folded like a laptop, the driving scene is drawn on the upright upper half.
• Fixed a possible brief screen freeze when sound starts on iOS 27.

### 1.13.0 — 2026-10-17

• Now available in 34 languages: 23 new ones including Arabic, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Polish and Ukrainian, with layouts refined for long translations and right-to-left scripts.

• Choosing a bike engine now shows a motorcycle: supersport, naked, cruiser or supermoto. It leans into corners and lifts its front wheel under hard acceleration or its rear wheel under hard braking.
• Bike-only 6-speed sequential gearbox with quickshifter, plus intake roar and dry-clutch sounds.
• Motorcycle exhaust sounds were refined against real dyno recordings.
• Fixed an issue where some engines would not rev up when pulling away.
• Circuit records for motorcycle engines are currently saved on the device only.
