I also think the GT35 is a better choice for all-around. Right around 4K or thereabouts to get 16-20PSI according to what I have heard from other ~3L owners running them.
He only made 300whp @ 9PSI on a 2JZ? I dont get it. That's equal power/lb than my car was making with a much smaller hotside, and it's a f'ing 2JZ hypebox!

That was on a stock ecu with no tuning. It would probably be about 350 on a dynojet.
