    Why high power V8's are better.

    That's why I choose both. I love turbo 4's and v8's. In fact, I owned a notchback 5.0 for about 2 weeks....long story. The 4's and 8's powerbands are so completely different, especially when the 4's start using bigger turbos. In my setup, the turbo is not that big that the low/mid range...
