Yeah I agree... I'de imagine that if you had a turbo 6 on order you'de probably be having second thoughts up until delivery as V8's always sound the part....but once you took delivery and done a few minor mods those thoughts would quickly be forgotten. The bang for your buck factor of these 6's are great
