It's old technology though, 2 valves per cylinder. Compare it to a 2.8 Cologne V6 with 150bhp, an M30 12v 3.0 with 188bhp, a Mercedes 3.0 12v straight 6 with 177bhp, an Audi 2.8 12v V6 from the 80 with 170bhp, it isn't that bad at all, a 5 valve per cylinder turbocharged 1.8 is unsurprisingly more powerful.
Controversial view but for me it's not about the actual power, it's more about how powerful it feels, and a VR6 at 2k revs feels like it can pull a house down.
