>^ This man speaks the truth. The items that make the GEN3 so much more powerful are the turbo, Intake manifold, cams, and ECU. All these compoinets need to be changed for 450+whp anyway.
I perfer the GEN3 because the parts you remove, can be sold for a rather large amount of cash, which will actually make the GEN3 platform a cheaper platform to start with.
But in the end, they are the same...so pick your poision....for me, I went with a GEN3 for my 500+awhp Alltrac project.
Alright, thanks Jim. Well either way, next year for certain (as things didn't go as planned for me this year) I will be hitting you up for parts. Selling a car or two, to reach these goals, plus some extra money from tax returns and such. As for the turbo, I will see what I can do for now by next check. My daily driver MR2 does need a new turbo as this one has too much shaft play.
