Something about Japanese current gen 6 cylinder engines just aren't up to snuff.

Honda/Acura's 3.5 turbo V6 is weak
Mazda's inline 6 turbo is also weak
Toyota's V35A has good numbers but it's got reliability issues
Nissan's VR35 has porous blocks

BMW B58 is the gold standard, but even Mercedes M256 inline 6T is quite competitive, and none of them can measure up.
