sound

I have been thinking how to create realistic sound for a car. The main sound is the engine, then all kind of wind, road and suspension sounds.

Are there any open source projects for the engine sound simulation? Simply pitching up the sample does not sound too great. The ideal would be to something that allows me to pick type of the engine (i.e. inline-4 vs v-8), add extras like turbo/supercharger whine and finally set the load and rpm.

Edit: Something like http://www.sonory.org/examples.html
