The Best sounding fours would have to be either the engine in the Honda S2000, and the boxer fours from the WRX. Cosworth fours? Yeah, nice as well. Europeans like Alfa and porsche (way back in the 944 days) had excellent sounding fours as well. Older Alfa Fours with an exhaust and a little work can have a mini Ferrari esque tone to them and sound great. Havent read the rest of the thread so My apologies if I repeated anything. |

The flat four in the WRX sounds alright with the right exhaust. I've only owned two four cylinders. I bought a 4 cylinder LC torana to learn how to do paint and panel, and then a Merc 190. The torana was a ****box but I put an exhaust on the Merc and it sounded ok for a four, but I won't be rushing out to buy another.

Best sound four cylinder would be one that has four cylinders on the left bank & four cylinders on the right but I have hear some ok lancers & mariages with big dollars spent on exhaust intake & other stuff that can sound quite sporty.

If you ever heard one of the Cosworths at 9500rpm you'd wet yourself... however I love the sound that early/mid eighties Suzuki/Kawasaki oil cooled 750/1100's make with a good pipe..... a really brutal raw sound. My old Alfa sounded pretty being revved hard too.

Zuki 750 4cyl.
PS: No boxer engine sounds good. Infact they sound worse than a bridge port rotary

Amazing how 4 cylinder bikes sound so different from buzzing 4 cylinder cars. A 4 cylinder only sounds good when it's doing at least 10,000rpm. And only if it has two wheels.

I'd have to say a 4kc toyota engine in a manual carolla running no exhaust. Sounds surprisingly good, not v8 good, but still good.
Cheers |
