A full body workout 3 times a week vs 2-3 muscles a day 4 times a week? please note that in splits i will do more exercises for each muscle.

It depends: Each person is different in their need for and ability to change with exercise. It depends on how hard you work those muscles once a week, or if you work all your muscles moderately 3 times a week. If you work each muscle really hard once a week, it will probably produce more lasting results.
