Naruto and Sasuke are both equally strong. Sasuke absorbed the Bijuu's chakra to be superior to Naruto which he actually was. When you look at the manga how easily he defended every attack from Naruto.....

@ Daywalker

It's actually irrelevant if Sasuke "took" power from the Bijuus by force and that Naruto "took" natural energy which surrounds the whole earth. But he took a huge ammount of it.

And still Naruto wasn't actually equal to Indra's arrow. Sasuke strongest attack (Indra's arrow) is/was stronger than Naruto's strongest attack. So Naruto needed his 2 strongest techniques to counter Indra's arrow (Just like Indra's Arrow has a strength of 1.000.000 and Naruto's strongest attack had 500.00 and his 2nd strongest had 475.00. => 1.000.000 = 500.00 + 475.000 + element bonus (wind is stronger than lightning)

Naruto's Rasengan was no normal Rasengan he put everything of Kurama's chakra into it.

So without it Sasuke and Naruto are equally strong. After Sasuke absorbed the Bijuu's chakra he was on Hagoromo's level and stronger than Naruto, but Naruto managed to absorb a huge ammount of nature chakra.................
