More automakers are turning to four-cylinder engines to find an ideal balance between performance and fuel efficiency.
But not all four-cylinder engines are created equally. While more modern ones are turbocharged, there have been some high-revving, naturally aspirated mills that not only deliver amazing performance, but sound great as well.

There is so much to love about the Ford Focus RS hatch, but we can all agree it?s the 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder engine that steals the show. Churning 350 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque, the Ford Focus RS is one of the meanest sounding cars we?ve ever heard with a four-cylinder engine.

I have an almost pathological aversion to RICEs...., but I'd buy a FiST exhaust that sounded like that in a heartbeat, regardless of gains or weight! Drool....

bolded above?

Also, the Alfa 4C sounds pretty righteous as well, and albeit not a current car, nor ever a production car available to the general public, but the old, Brit Escort Mk whatevers, Group 4 RWD NA rally cars with the Cossie headed BDAs in them sounded absolutely EVIL at full 9K rev scream!
