Keep your story consistent guys

sheesh
both are open deck blocks and both seem to hold roughly around the same power levels, perhaps with the vr30 being slightly more reliable at those levels. effectively, if you're going for power, the difference is negligible. Stock vs stock vr30 is hands down obviously better simply because it has factory turbos.

I tune the new 3.0s all the time, honestly nothing will ever sell me on them because they sound worse than a 4 cylinder.. disgusting noise no matter what exhaust they have

Ditto. It's a compilation of the rev limit, LSA, turbo size, and exhaust design. Changing the exhaust doesn't fix the rest but some kids will prefer the mess that is the vr30's exhaust note. It's like it can't decide wether it wants to pop, burble, or rev
