RS200 is about balance and power. The 1J and 2J conversions add considerable weight in the front end, so you get awesome power at the expense of handling/balance.
Horses for courses.... the Vertex Altezza from Japan runs around 380ps from it's 2J, but there are plenty of 400ps-500ps 3SGE turbo RS200's. The BEAMS 3SGE can be made to make good power also, without the additional weight. And you don't have to go to the extreme's of a TODA spec engine... indeed, 4 Throttle BEAMS 3SGE's don't make as good power as a turbo BEAMS 3SGE.... i reckon i'd choose the quad throttles in a flash, though!

Note: have recently been to Japan, and among other goodies i picked up the second copy of Hyper Rev for the Altezza (there are 3 in total). Fantastic stuff, even if i don't know many kunji characters! Hence all the figures above quoted in 'ps'
