Just found this and had to post! Amazing sound! Perhaps the experts can comment on how accurate the sound is and whether it's been doctored. Turn it up:

Wow!

That dB snarl and “demonic howl” (very apt phrasing) gave me goose bumps!

And they never fly those old warbirds at 100% throttle!

Sounds a lot more aggressive and meaner than the Spitfire!

Thanks for sharing Marlow!

If not already known, here is the sound in the cockpit of the Me 109 G4 "Red 7" at the 2015 Biggin Hill airshow.

And another video of the Me 109 G4 "Red 7"

That was great, Amarok! Some really interesting videos......

It was fascinating to hear the engine noise internally. Whenever I fly I turn the engine sound very low so that I can hear coms...but it means I don't get that 'punch in the stomach' sound that I'm sure is there. Interesting, too, to see the communicating hand signals between the pilot and ground crew. Chocks out was pretty self evident but I wonder what some of the earlier signals were? The G4 sure was a noisey but beautiful beast!

Great stuff! Salute!
