Hi John. I could be wrong, but I believe the car you have was also known as the XR4ti. My understanding is the XR4i was for the European V6 model. The Yanks got the 4 pot. I owned an XR4i V6 for a while. sounded awesome and went very well in a straight line. The V6 isn't a light motor, so it braked and turned badly. I think the turbo puts out nearly the same power, but lighter and so a better balanced car.
