3S-GTE USDM Turbo Engine 3sgte questions

richey.charles · 10-23-2009, 12:32 AM

I just bought a jdm gen2 3sgte and wanted to know what the differences were in this engine and the engine that came in my 91 turbo. The jdm mr2 is listed to put out 225hp where as our cars are listed at 200hp. will this give me a hp gain? and will i have any issues installing?

the diffs. are mostly in the exhaust and the ecu is slightly different but it's mostly the exhaust

The turbo is slightly different too (ceramic exducer instead of inconel, slightly smaller impeller for better spool).
