Down here in Australia in our "muscle" car department was have Ford FPV (For Performance Vehicles) Kind of like Chyrsler SRT, anywho in this FPV range there is a FPV GT which is a 5.4ltr V8 that produces 330kw then we have the FPV Thypoon a 4ltr 6 Cylinder Turbocharged, which produces 310kw. Although most people thought the V8 has the upper hand they were wrong, the Thypoon does 0-100kms in mid to high 4 second mark whereas the V8 does it in mid 5 sec mark. Further more both vehicles were put to the dyno (stock) the V8 JUST made it to its 330kw, whereas the Thypoon which is meant to have 310kw produced something like 335kw.

Sorry for going off track but I'm trying to say that maybe the SRT actually has the 260kw but for marketing reasons were told it has 246kw.

Interesting topic to me though.
