Re: Another new FP Evo turbo??

Interesting thing about a swap like this is, you could do like when I upgraded my 05 (10.5 hotside) evo8 turbo to the IX turbo...leave exhaust mani, turbine housing, o2 housing, and downpipe all in place and just yank the CHRA and compressor cover out of the car. The whole swap took like 2 hours, it was pretty painless.

This doesn't seem like a huge upgrade but it'd would be verrrrry interesting to see what it does on a local car!

edit: although, for my money I might consider the BBK Lite; its the same concept: just an upgraded compressor wheel. Not sure what the price is but worth investigating...real world they would probably perform very very similar to each other!
