The problem with that, is that on city driving, it is slow to get going from standing still, and you have to rev the engine to get any sort of acceleration. On top of that, on low rpms the engine feels gutless...like, nothing is happening.
Sorry, I meant it has fairly narrow peak torque range in those RPMs. The turbo engine will feel significantly stronger and will pull strongly from low RPMs (so good for city driving)
