What do you say Is the best sounding engine of all time?
For me, itโs the 1LR 4.8L v10 they built for the Lexus LFA. Only 500 built and they lost money on every one of them.
I was at the Monterey car show a few years ago when this car came out . I red onw was parked on the main street in Csrmel . Just as I walked up to it ---the owner came out and asked me if I liked it . I said " whats not to like " ? He laughed a little , said he just got it and was learning how to drive it . He got it and fired it up --- have to admit that it sounded " perfect " . he pulled out and jumped on the throttle ---spun the tires for a couple seconds and drove away . For $500K ---- it better sound perfect

Not sure of the best, but the worst is the new ford 5.0. Several sound like [censored]. Quad cam v-12 Ferrari with DelLorto carbs is musical. Any top fuel motor is just crazy.

big diesel, cummins isx turned up. cfi ran test trucks for kenworth and michelin, I drove 2 of the turned up T600s. sounded like a diesel with a good cam at idle.
race car, indycar, 10,000 rpm sustained is beyond impressive to me and the sound is cool.
1,500 hp monster truck
panhead harley running good.
250 2 stroke runnin like it's stolen (or 300 either or)

With water?  Hell yeah! I got to run a KC-135A on the ground with 4 in water! Rock and Roll, Baby! I've had to sit in a hydrant pump house and listen to it. Nothing compares!

I bought a RX7 back in 1980. For a guy raised on muscle cars and big blocks. I was almost embarrassed by the sounds coming out of that little rotary gem.
