does anyone know what makes the JDM 3sfe more powerful than the aussie 3sfe? are there parts that are different or something? i know its a long shot but is it possible to frankenstein parts from the JDM 3sfe onto the aussie 3sfe to get the same sort of power? im just curious.

why not swap? stupidly easier and not worth the money.

yeah i could do the swap... but for $100 extra i could get the gen1 3sge in my car, which puts out a lil more power. as i said i am just curious as to the difference between them.
i dont really plan to frakenstein one together just wana know would it possible? (and no one better chime in saying "anything is possible if you have the money")

i seriously doubt there will be any power gain.

i went from a USDM to a JDM 3SFE and i can barely tell a difference. Just a little bit peppyier in the high rpm range, but nothing drastic.
