Whilst browsing through the 1G posts i find people always advise on getting the revision 3 of the engine ...is there a good reason for this? is the only real difference the boost pressure? were previous versions harder to tune?
Thanks for any replys

you have probably read the article on the versions, even though it doesnt really say the differences

I think the main difference between the Gen2 and Gen3 (the air-air IC versions) is the boost pressure and the computer/tuning.

There are other differences between Gen2 and Gen3 too. I'm not too cluey on all of them. I remember a post from ddeane that listed them though.
From what I remember, the turbo inlet was larger (this is on top of the more boost and more aggressive ECU).

Sorry to revive an old thread but is there another way to tell the gen2-3 apart without a loom/ecu plugs ?

The rocker covers are different between gen 2 and gen 3. The gen 2 has the oil filler cap towards the front of the motor and the gen 3 has it closest to the firewall.
anyone care to confirm that with me?

it'd be a bitch to top the oil up then having it further back

Pretty sure most of that is slightly wrong.
I think its Gen1's with different rocker covers (could be wrong here)
But Gen2's definately have oil filler at rear of motor.

Trust me, filling the oil at that back is a real pain. Simple fix. Put the N/A rocker covers on.

Check the resistance across the injectors.
