I thought the same, til i had an engine failure. It never sounded "different" to me, just loud valve train noise. If it were quieter it's very likely i still wouldn't have heard anything considering what the failure was. I guess having one fail has left me with some ptsd and I'm just not comfortable with the "i dont care what it sounds like as long as it runs good" mantra anymore.
