What's up with the twin-flapper on the Red? Andy particular reason for that? I was under the impression that the singles were better?

 

565 (peak HP)/12 (max effort HP per lb/min flow)/.78 (22% dyno loss est for DJ)= 60.4 lb/min LOW ESTIMATE.

540/12/.75 (25% loss est for MD) = 60 lb/min even

12 HP per lb/min is pushing it, use 11 and plug it in.
I think 12 HP per lb/min is reserved for those from OKC, Sewickley PA, and Puerto Rico.

I've always heard that thing referred to as 58 lb/min around here, and we always publish a low number so nobody gets disappointed when it actually does better.

 

Here's a couple more pics. My standard porting bench isn't usually a box, but it works in a pinch.


My way of keeping things straight, ...or curved.

 

Holy turbine size. I am in love!

Perfect California turbo!

 

So, does that mean we met our goal? For those who don't know you, GrocMax is the one from FP that has helped teach me as I've tried to increase my knowledge base. If he says it, mark your book and take notes. Thanks Scott for the many phone calls and effort from your end. We're not through using you up, but not until I've gotten some rest. Thanks so much for the patience.

 

9sec9, how much difference do you think your porting made? I am getting one of these and am trying to figure out if I should have it done, or leave it be.

 

Musketeer 2, Don't even consider putting the Red on without porting it. I think the porting (without having a way to really measure it, kind like the butt dyno) has got to be worth 20-25 whp or more.

 

somewhat kidding but serious question...

anyway i can "trade in"+ cash my Fp Green for an Fp Red haha

 

Another way of keeping track of what's going on. It'll keep us from yelling "ROBERT, HEEEELLLLPPPPPP!!!!"


And now, Breaking the 500 whp Barrier on a stock appearing turbo!

 

Thanks for the great info!! When are you going to the track?

 

I'm not going to lie, whether it's ricey or not to state, that gauge is cool as hell.

Now everybody's going to want one!

 

I agree. When the light is hooked up, it's really nice. The best part is it actually has a purpose that keeps you in the power range.

 

Thanks for all the info 9sec9! Hopefully, if I really bust my butt I can fetch 2nd or 3rd place in the ESA class at the shootout. I would say SOMEONE will have 1st wrapped up.....

 

Will you have my babies???

I see my new turbo once I hit my goal on the green

 

you have no idea how cool it is

Oh for the record Tom/Tony... I HATE YOUR evo as much as Daves RS now
