I would think 620whp should be good for at least 135+ if not closer to 140...

With the Black being offered in BB I would think the stock oil feed should be more than enough to supply oil to the CHRA so there wont be a need to purchase the expensive FP oil feed line. Which would help offset the cost. At least I would think.

Looking forward to seeing pricing. Also I wonder if we will still be able to send in our 9 turbos for the upgrade service to these new gems...

I knew this would happen this year, since Aniel would nt really say either way if they were doing it or not. The poor MAP turbo's are never gonna catch on now

All the stock frame offerings are going this way. Congrats to FP being the second ones to the market but the first to offer a broad array of stock frame turbo's in BB. Love to see the price. Gives a lot of us straddling the line on FP Blacks and 6262's another choice. I would imagine there will be a ton of dyno threads soon.
