You'll be hard pressed to find the same low end torque that an iron in-line 6 with Garrett gives in some of the cheaper engines coming out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERYONE here has a vy-vz ss all my mates included, and I rarely see a xr6 turbo flogging around, which is good and personally I prefer the feel of a turbo to a v8.

All the usual BA problems. Too many to list. If you want a good one you still have to pay about $15k+. And I agree with the sentiments of those who said they'll either crash them because they can't drive, or won't be able to afford repairs because those $10-12k ones won't last very long. Let's hope it's the latter though; an XR6T in the wet with the traction off in the wrong hands is like a time-bomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
