the 3rd gen was a twin-sequential turbo 13b-rew (rew-tt). the turbo 2 (t2) is the USDM version of the JDM 2nd gen turbo (hence, turbo II) released in the US between 87-91 (2nd gen).

the only major changes were the irons, motor mounts, turbo(s), and a bit of over-engineering, IMHO. other small changes were made, but mostly just to up-fit the new engineering.

 

reguardless from what gen it was in it is still from my understanding the better engine to start building a reliable boost engine.

 

It does if you are going to give someone information that you yourself are unsure of. I am done here. Thanks.

 

that is the motor that coined the phrase "boost in, apex seals out"

 

lmao....and I am about to rejoin the Rotary Community.
