A friend of mine who owns an XR8 told me the Turbo might be a little quicker than the XR8, but the 8 will be pushing more 'Force' at the end of the 1/4 mile. I don't really know what he meant, but after reading this, I think he was just talking bollocks!

YOU WERE RIGHT... not saying theyre a useless car... standard and with equivalent amounts of money thrown at each... the 6turbo will win.
