You must also know that headflow isn't the end-all, be-all point. The manner in which air mixes with gasoline is also of critical importance. I believe the proper term is atomize. Toyota designed the GE heads to atomize the air best under natural vacuum and the GTE under boost. Because of this fact the 2JZ-GTE is a worthwhile upgrade from the 2JZ-GE even though the headflow charts make them see almost identical.
Believe me, I'm not the type of person to be arguing about flow charts, nor do I really care. I was just curious...And yes I understand the design differences between N/A vs F/I. The gaskets being the same doesn't necessarily mean equal flow though.
