i like it and the price is right.https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=236346
The BB 50 Trim kit looks awesome. I was thinking about the AMS 50 trim kit anyway so this kit looks great but its cheaper. Everything looks quality-built and well thought out.
I'm not excited at all about any of the "20G" turbos out there.

blah blah blah, proven this proven that... sorry fot the OT post but how would anyone be able to sell anything new because it is not proven... I have seen their manifolds and their work. It is top notch. They give a lifetime warranty on their work and their kit is complete. Plus I have actually met and spoke to all of the guys from AFI and they have built tons of manifolds, kits, etc. Dont listen to all of the people wanting to waste their money on other "proven kits" I ordred my 35R kit from them yesterday. We will see who proves what. 
They look VERY nice. I posted on their thread for more info out of curiosity 
A good kit is a good kit.. but compatiblity with existing parts and the shop being close to my location is a plus to me. I think I'm going to stick with the 3065 as the 50t/LT isn't going to keep me happy long enough.

Sorry for bringing this thread back up, who in here owns a 50 trim or a GT35 kit? And has some of their own imput on this 2 kits? I'm leaning more towards the GT35 kit. I'm not a dragstrip *****, and I don't want to have to run meth all the time, mostly pump gas. Is the 50 trim a better option? Or is maybe the GT35 is?

the main thing i would use this car for would be autocross racing and want something with close to factory spool so a gt35 would be a definate no no. the 20glt seems like the right choice for me since it is in my price range and i have seen some good numbers out of it but if i do have the money i will definately go for the 50 trim
Get the 20GLT (EVO GREEN) from Forced Performance....I've heard good things about it. I've also got one on the way for me

I would say BB 50 trim ..... mainly because while road racing the spool of a 50 trim won't even matter......all you have to do is get into the throttle a little sooner.
Lets not forget you'll need a bigger FMIC, injectors, and tune with either package.

lcakes, nothing I have sold is "fake" and everyone of them has set a record. You should keep your comments to yourself if you have nothing intelligent to add.
As for the 50 trim kits. We are waiting on our BB 50 trims to come in right now. If you are considering a 50 trim kit I'd highly recommend waiting and seeing what type of numbers we pull out of this new kit.
To be dead honest. A 50 trim flows about 49 lb/mn, so does the new 20GLT/Green turbo and it is a direct bolt on. It's already shown 10 second capable on two cars and come spring it will be on more. HP numbers are excellent, almost no loss of low end compared to the stock turbo. It's really a great turbo.
As soon as the 50 trims come in I'll be putting a kit together on something and doing some testing.
