    Yes, there are differences. The Gen3's will have a wider inlet, and different bolt spacing on the inlet side (where the crappy 90' pipes bolt up). Nothing a bit of work with a rotary tool can't fix

    Thats the main difference I noticed when swapping from gen1 -> gen3.

    If you have a search around the forums you should turn something up, I don't have any Gen3 turbos here.

    If they happen to have the inlet pipes too, the easiest way is to go off them. If they bolt up and they're round, they're Gen1/2. If they're fat and wide, they're Gen3.
