I'm sure there are some advantages to the 2.3, but you can really do a lot with the 2.0T. Just take a look at the performance board: there are C900's and NG900's running much more power than a stock 9000 Aero. Granted, you can probably extract more power from the 2.3 given the same expenditures, but unless you're trying to get the maximum amount of power possible with no regard for cost the difference won't be night and day. You would get a bigger performance increase per dollar spent by upgrading your current engine rather than going through the time and trouble of replacing it all together. Of course, if you had a blown-up 2.0 and were going to replace it anyway, then going to the 2.3 might make sense.
