Big mistake Jabbot the difference between the GE & the GTE is huge Smile Dyno day 10 Senor 2 took me for a ride in his SW20 with a Gen 3 3S-GTE, it made about 155RWKW and it flew. My car always seemed slower after that.....only way to cure that disease is drive a Rolla around for 2 weeks and then your car feels fast again Laughing (no offense to the Rolla boys).

Honestly though, the GTE is going to be much faster, it will munch more fuel and Turbo cars are generally more expensive to maintain.

The GE is still a good engine, very free revving and is predictable around corneres, just remember too heavy on the throttle in a GTE and you'll loose the rear end real easy.

Up to you dude...

My N/A should still be able to keep up with your GTE unless you mod it Smile We'll have to try that out sometime Evil or Very Mad
