The $ amount may not be there right now, but unless it's 400whp gains for $500 the 3800 community will always be unimpressed.

276~ = gen3
291 = genV +5% increase
339 = tvs 1320 +23% increase
tvs 1650 = ????

Thanks, I did exactly what I set out to do. IMO the TVS swap should give someone looking to go from a GenIII to an inter cooled GenV a serious choice. It's not for everyone and clearly not for the majority of the people in this bargain basement shopping community.

As for your % increases, the 1650 won't do much over a 1320 at this power level. It's when you start stringing the blower out that you'll see better gains. Also a 1650 isn't even in production yet, and if/when it is, the unit itself is gonna be like $3000, lol.

With the proper supporting mods the TVS1320 will support ~500whp on our engines. If you want more than that... look into a 1900.
