We call that a hand grenade.

Mrs. Number 3's ATS sounds just like a 4 cylinder. Smooth as silk though. Drove a CTS with the same engine and it has a completely different sound. Drove an Audi A6 with their 2.0t and it felt like they wanted to penalize anyone who bought a 4 cylinder. But my Audi Q5 with a 2.0t was pretty awesome. So Alpha can be "ok" and pretty good with the 2.0t
