How does that compare to FG Barra?

Power: 195 kW (261 hp) @ 6000 rpm
Torque: 391 N⋅m (288 lb⋅ft) @ 3250 rpm

So basically Ford 3.7L Cyclone V6 is much more technologically advanced, but it sucks because it puts out less torque at 1000 RPM later than our home grown dinosaur
Guzzled petrol worse than the Barra as well.
