The PS2 is such a great turbo and is a great option for the N55. Having said that, the PS2 can’t touch a PS3 on a street, strip, or track driven car. The Dyno is a great tool to show performance gains, but the dragy shows real world performance. Both leave my opinion out of it and prove the performance gains over a PS2.

I know the PS2 on full tilt (25psi) can put down maybe 510-520whp and have yet to see one go 6.05 100-200k. I think the fastest I have seen is 6.7s for a PS2, which is still movin.

The PS3 right now is just cruising and much much faster. Both are great options in my experience, but the results make it clear the PS3 is the faster car.

Hopefully that helps.
