talked to ben yesterday and he said only real difference is that the turbo in gen 3 kits are "more efficent" any1 knows what exactly that means? like will make more power or maybe better gas mileage?? any other differences? only reason i ask is cuz i came upon a REAL GOOD deal on a gen 2 kit brand new, way cheaper than getting a new gen 3 kit. so trying to decide if its worth saving that cash for the gen 2 or just put out the dough for gen 3.

TIA

I think by referring to efficeincy he means that the heat that is generated in relation to speed it spins and the size, keeps the turbo in it's most usefull range, where it doens't get as heat soaked and heats the air up more than it should.. The gen 2 is maybe smaller and when it spins, spins too fast and produces more heat and heats the intake air more, which as we know... cool air is best.. and it can't compress the hot air enough... I'd imagine an intercooler helps a good bit, but overall effieciency is hurt ....

make any sense??
