XR8 PWNED by Polo GTI!

[Oneofthegreats]

It's alot easier to extract power from a forced induction car rather than a big block NA.

Off topic & I'd agree with you on some levels of this & I'm not defending them either but,

I'll have to disagree on this one to a degree sorry. Have you seen what a cam & head package will do to a LS1 chev along with LS1 Edit. Guaranteed mid to high 11 sec quarter's in a 3500+Ibs car. That's also with a very mild tune. only a 220 degree @ .050" lift cam. They are that tunable it's not funny.

It's really six of one & half a dozen of the other, as you can spend the same amount on an XR6T & make 300+RWKW's & can do the same thing.

You just never know what's out there.

For example, If you spent $7-8k on your car for a turbo, sofware & exhaust upgrade, I could build you a reliable 500hp/450+ft.Ibs small block for the same amount. It will use much more fuel though

Feel free to delete this if needed.

Agree or disagree however much you like. No need to apologise. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. That's one of the beauties of internet forums.


But doesn't the f6 Typhoon (4.0 straight 6 turbo) make 550nm of torque and the Boss V8 only make 520nm? (just as an example I'm sure it doesnt apply to all things NA and turbo of course)
