Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
Little update on these for everyone. People are making around 420whp on a mustang dyno with this turbo on a stock motor, stock manifolds, and supporting mods. People are reporting seeing 48-49lbs/min out of it, which is about the same as a standard 50-trim.
Forced Performance is also offering a rebuild/exchange version of this turbo, where they will take a stock evo9 turbo plus $999 for the turbo. Some people are reporting that they will take evo8 turbos on exchange as well. With 50-trim turbo kits out there for the evo costing upwards of $4000, and DSM legends such as Curt Brown reporting this as "Best street turbo I have ever had" it is looking like something fun to try :) |
Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
Yeah, the latest version of this turbo (LT/Green) definitely seems like the ticket on a daily driver.
Props to FP and Buschur on this one. |
Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
FP's new cast manifold is the cat's ass as well.

Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
that thing is hot! They need to make one of those that fits their fp30 housings onto an evo...

Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
The old Greens were better than your normal 50-trims setups. Both had the 50-trim compressor wheel, but the Greens always had a much better exhaust side that gave them an edge.

Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
Thanks for the link, I hadn't heard about the new race mani from FP. Just placed my order. :sasmokin:

Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
I hope the people who bleed Slowboy and buy their piece of shit manifold take the time to look at FP's new piece. Robert Young does a superb job of explaining the strengths of his design in those Tunerz posts.

I don't think you'd be along. I've read some shit on SBR over the last few months just just make me wonder how they are still in business. |
Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
Steve, I guess I didn't realise you were still running a mitsu housed turbo. Those manifolds do look nice, but I plan on going to a T3 flanged turbo, otherwise I'd probably be spending a little of my tax return on one of those as well.

Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
Yep, I went from a 20G, to an FP Red to a FP 3575. I love the new FP hotside, and I was shopping around for a better manifold anyways. I really wanted a nice Shearer one, but ~$800 is out of my budget, and he only built a few of them anyways.
|
Re: Buschur & Forced Performance: new stock appearing evo turbo!
OK. For some reason I thought after you sold the Red, you went to a garrett turbo. Anywho, looks like it'll be a nice manifold. Did you get it coated as well?
