just to clarify a bit.
the 3rd gen uses a top mount water to air intercooler, which uses coolant to the intake air VS a 2nd gen air to air top mount that used air that is forced over it by the scoop on the alltrac hood.
the water to air intercooler is much more efficent than the 2nd gen or most FMIC's you see on ebay.

also, tufy, hardtarget and a few others here, as well as dozens over on mr2oc have been making 400whp+ on the 3s for years.
