If I missed any, let me know.
Trying to keep the list recent, so mostly current production vehicles only.

 

[StageLeft]

Any one of the top three for me

 

[Quixfire]

Other...Dodge 2.2L turbo with Cosworth head.

 

[RossMAN]

[aphex]

VW Jetta/GTI/Beetle/Passat/A4 (1.8L)

 

[Mookow]

The Supra's SR20DET is a 4-banger, IIRC

 

[cjchaps]

Suby's latest 2.5 turbo'd = 300/300 HP/Tourque!
plus a nice boxer growl!

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

Mookow, the SR20DET was the engine in the Nissan Silvia. The latest Supra didn't have a 4 cylinder option - only an inline 6 (either with or without turbo).

That's a supercharger
As are all Mercedes with forced induction (aka Kompressor).
I don't think any Mercedes currently uses a Turbo.

 

[MiniGolfIsFun]

Doesn't the SRT-4 use a modified 4G63 engine (same as Evo)?

 

[Saltin]

I'd have to say the 1.8t, if it wasnt for the damn coil-pack issues.......

Hint#1- The Supra did not have an option for a SR20DET
Hint#2- Just as well, since the SR20DET is a Nissan engine, and the Supra is made by Toyota
Hint#3- The Supra had an inline 6
Hint#4- The SR20DET was in the Silvia

[boyRacer]

Toyota 2.0L 3S-GTE
Nissan 2.0L SR20DET
Lotus 2.2L 4 banger... whatever the deisgnation number is... still a nice engine...

Plus all the 4 bangers from the 4-7th gen EVOs and the Subarus...

No its all dodge except the turbo

I would have picked the old 2.2l/2.5l turbo dodge engine but since it wasn't listed I had to go with the 2.4l .

 

[GasX]

"4-banger" and "favorite engine" are not phrases I like to use in the same sentence...

 

[Marshallj]

I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the Mitsubishi 4 cyls. What other 4 cyl car is so easy to get into the 11's?

 

[conjur]

Ah....the ol' 2.2L Turbo in my '85 Shelby Charger...

YES. Plus, it lives in one of the best handling cars ever built.

Mercedes probably has a few turbodiesels in its lineup.
