God damnit, I find out this thing comes out after I planned on going e316g/e85 on 850cc FIC's.
Sounds like a good deal though, cheap as hell and big as hell for the price.

The FP18G6SL2 turbocharger is a good choice for those looking for more power than the Big 16G in a street turbo. The 18G is rated at 600cfm, thats enough airflow to hit 400whp. We use the 18g wheel over the Evo3 wheel due to the 18's better high boost performance. The 18g wheel maintains its compressor efficiency much better in the 22-28psi range than the EVO3 16g wheel can.
It bolts up just like a regular 16G, and spools quickly enough to be very streetable. The 18G compressor wheel is mated to a TD06SL2 turbine wheel, which gives it better performance at higher boost pressures than the TD05H turbine, while maintaining lower exhaust manifold back pressures. The turbine housing is cast preported and fitted with a 34mm flapper valve. It is a perfect match for the Evo III O2 housing, and has a redesigned wastegate passage to better control boost creep, however some short side radius-ing of the WG entry will be helpful if you really want to turn the boost down. The high-nickel material in this turbine housing is much less susceptible to cracking than the materials used in previous generation Mitsubishi 7cm2 turbine housings.
Our FP18G turbos are built in-house at Forced Performance by our skilled techs, so you know that you are getting a turbo that can stand up to the punishment you dish out.
Basically now, I may want to switch turbos. Add your 2 cents guys!
