Quarter mile - The XB will destroy a Sprinter - Torque is what wins on the quarter ..
Unless you have a GTE or GZE boosted to the balls - and a LSD bum end on it - you wont have a chance .. sorry ..
On the track the sprinter will be a worthy compnent to have under your belt - handling wise - yours will out corner and out brake the XB - but he will take you on the straights , and out of corners
Ive tried this same challenge in my own celica - Its a heavily modified 2tb ( cam, big carb , overbore , all the goodies ), with all the bells and whisles suspension wise - and mine will rip strips off my makes worked 351 ( duel carb ,cammed ,all the good V8 stuff ) XB coupe thru corners - as long as the grade isnt too steep
on the straight - my Celica will do 180 with out much issues - mind you its basically at its peak then before the thing starts saying no more , whereas his coupes still pulling strong to 200 +
In a nutshell - Ford wins on the strip - unless you have forced indiction ( sprinters what - 17 sec stock quarter , XB v8 is about a mid 15's stock ) Theres no sunstitute for cubes and torque
yours will challenge and possible beat him on the track - providing the tracks twisty and he has no chance to stretch the v8's legs, handling braking and balance win the trophy here
