Ok I ave heard u can't get the sound of a v8 out of a v6 due to the fact that the v6 it even firing. Is there anyway to make the v6 odd firing like a gt with out adding the other 2 cylinders.
Even firing

Yeah, you are right. But small LSA usually means a large overlap, unless the cam has baby duration... But what after market cam for our engines has a small LSA and baby duration? That wouldn't be a hot seller.
So, look for a cam with a large amount of overlap. That will sound nasty at idle.
What is almost all the ones comp sells alex?

Hey ESG I see that you give out advice for cams. What would be the best setup for a 98 be just to give it that nice sound. It all stock except for a cai and exhuast.

Even-fire vs odd-fire isn't something you can just swap. It has to do with the angle of the vee of the engine vs the angle of the throws of the crankshaft and the cylinder timing that results because of it.

If you look at the cylinder caps, you can get a sense of what an oddfire does. The one on the right is your typical evenfire motor - you can see that the tangs are even length and have even spacing. That makes for a nice smooth running engine. The cap on the left is for an oddfire, and the tangs are not even at all. Some are short, some are long, and the spacing is not even.
You wouldn't want an oddfire engine in your Mustang, anyway. While they make great torque, they're very rpm limited. That's why no one has used them since the '70s.
You want V8 sound, get a V8. You have a V6, embrace it or get rid of it.

So no odd firing swap possible, Maybe there is a way to make an exhuast odd firing sounding for example put in enough piping to make the right pipe take longer to fire than the left pipe.

Everyone knows adding exhaust piping to one side changes the firing order yo. VTEC ENGAGED.
