I don’t doubt that the Gen 3 is better than the 2R, etc. but the Gen 2R is still a great unit! I had one on my last Coyote. It made 840rw and didn’t seem to loose it’s breath at 8,500 rpm. The little thing ripped! OP, if you find a good deal on a used 2R, I wouldn’t hesitate. Especially for a bolt on street car.

I agree.
You can only buy new 3R now.
If you have a stock Trinity 2.3 then the 2R isn’t worth the upgrade but I do like the 2R. Actually looking for one for my Coyote project.

^ Just my two cents- definitely look at the torque curve of the blowers at the boost levels you plan to run, not just peak power. The first generation GT500 is heavy… 4.10s help, but a nice hit at lower RPMs is very fun on the street.

For a bolt on 2007 5.4 I’d be looking for a ‘13-14 Trinity TVS 2.3 or Gen 2R.

As @1Kona_Venom said I did alot of research and tuning after buying a shit ton of parts to include the "One off" custom polished BNIB 3R from him. I'm willing to answer any specific questions and I have a shit ton of pictures of everything installed and Dyno pulls ect on my Instagram (Venom_five4) if ya'll get bored! And shout out to @1Kona_Venom for all of his help and deals he's provided me with over the past year and some!
