Not that you have the choice, but the Ford XR6 Turbo is the way to go.
Both will be extinct in a few years.
@Lukas: Why do you think it's superior?
No good reason - if you live in Australia it's required that you are either pro-Ford or pro-Holden, and I chose Ford at some point. Probably because we had a string of Falcons when I was a kid.
