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 :)

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.

FP's new cast manifold is the cat's ass as well.

that thing is hot! They need to make one of those that fits their fp30 housings onto an evo...

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.

Thanks for the link, I hadn't heard about the new race mani from FP. Just placed my order. :sasmokin:

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.

He is a sales man trying to sell his product:)

But I agree it looks like a nice manifold.:nod:

A salesman who is not full of shit, unlike Mike Huml. However, I'm not going to get into my Slowboy rant so my comments are done.

LOL, must be a hell of a rant. :D

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.

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.

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.

Halon 02-04-2007 11:10 PM

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?
