Damn fast, and sometimes very sideways 
Block is a GM straight 6, stoked to 3.6L and 2 Garrett turbochargers bolted on. Good for 377bhp, also appears in GT4

XE's are commonly known as a square engine i believe, it has the same size piston bore along with its piston lift. You'll find diesels have alot higher lift than their bore! Its all good stuff!
