Oops, sorry. Fixed.

Wow that thing is hardly stock appearing anymore, that thing is huge!

I agree, I want a Black in a OEM compressor housing ;)

You know, this is my biggest gripe with this turbo. Tons of people are calling it 'stock appearing' and I am continually raising a BS flag, no one acknowledges the simple fact that it is NOT stock appearing! Close, yes, but not truely.

None of the current FP turbos are stock-appearing anymore. The only one that REALLY is would be the BBK; the Tomei ARMS is close though.

Closer, yea, but it still has a huge TOMEI sticking out of it! :D

I sincerely hope they don't allow these turbos to compete in the stock-appearing category at events like the buschur shoot-out. Not that I will necessarily be there and competing, but just as a matter of principal. If they do, then they should allow DSMs to run FP Reds or HTA DSM82's, which are bolt-on, but clearly not stock appearing.

My mistake on the Tomei, that one is no better than the FP turbos!

Actually the older reds and greens don't look that far off, the white's also. At least the compressor housings anyways.

The older ones sure, but those aren't being sold anymore :)
