From what I've seen on here it should be anywhere from 270-290ish WHP, depending on my motors condition compared to the people on here that have dyno'd theirs. IMO if your gonna leave the motor basically stock for a little while or are going from an N/A definitely go Gen3. If you already have a Gen2 turbo, I'd go JDM Gen2 or just mod the crap out of your existing motor. Thats just my out look on it though.
That makes a whole lot of sense. I just hate to hear people beat down a gen2 motor that can make the same power. If you proceed about the project in a smart way. And i get all my stuff from japan. Contradicting what most board members think the JDM market has an abundance of parts for the gen3 motor.
Dont get me wrong i think the gen3's are great lets not just bash the gen2 which is quite capable.
