Too many variables;What do you want it for (Drift,Grip,etc.) What parts are used in both...turbos? You defiantly want the quality and not the quantity

I wudn't need 2 so I'd rather go with the 600HP one. plus you gotta consider he probly has better pistons fuel upgrade, etc.

Why do you need 600hp? I wouldn't want more than 300 in a daily driver.

^^ different strokes for different folks. Maybe he's already had 300 and is tired of it. But I doubt it seeing how he's looking at buying the motor already built.

I know a guy locally selling his built 2jz, already has everything ready to swap into a s-chasis for 10k and I'm sure it putting down more than 600 that and you know it can take more.

After riding/driving 270whp... I think 300 would workout nice daily, and 350 for the weekends. A peaky motor doesnt really sound to fun in a streetcar though. What turbos are on each motor...a broad powerband at 400 would make more sense. With 400whp goodluck getting any traction in the first 3 gears, and with 600 I can imagine coming into boost in hwy gears being a little scary.
