This isn't the first time I've heard of Ross pistons being "loud."

When John gets his car checked outand retuned I'll go again. I'm not here to show anyone up just to prove that the fpevo green is a great turbo for the money and can hang with the 50 trim kits out there.

Just one is alot cheaper, but you can't swap out the turbo to a 35R,37R etc either.

In maxxed out setups both turbos will put out close to the same power. All that video shows is the FP car is setup better or has a much better driver.

Good video BTW and for the record I think the FPGreen/20GLT the best deal out there for a 125mph goal ET being driver dependent of course.
I think you are forgetting about the area under the curve. The Evo Green is much more responsive turbo with almost stockish spool.

Ya, think? The difference in spool between a 50 trim and a 20GLT is 200rpms there isn't some huge difference in spool. Both turbos have there pros in cons and I'll say it again if 450whp is enough the 20GLT is the best ticket around.

Very hard pull against the 50 trim! I am assuming that something might be wrong on the setup or perhaps a boost leak.

I am consedering buying a FPGreen soon!

Congrats on a very fast car!

As I have mentioned I'm not out here to prove I have the fastest car but to show the fpevo green is a great turbo for the money and it will give a lot of turbos run for their money when on race gas. Every car is different I'm willing to go against another 50trim car it could beat me who knows. Once again this is just to show that the fpevpo green is very capable and great bang for the buck if you're not looking to spend 5k or be stuck with a laggy turbo.

Why do you mention race gas? Are you running pump or race gas in the videos? I assumed pump due to your dyno numbers posted based on pump.

evo8ltw- I am saying that when the fpgreen will be on race gas it will give a lot of turbos a run for their money meaning the 35r's and such since it's quick spool will compensate for the 50 or so hp loss

Not to mention that it should make for a much better autox car and most likely even on a lot of mid sized tracks.

man, i'd love to see the curves with the FP vs. 50-trim on the same car with the same mods. without a direct comparison, it's a difficult choice.

I will switch back to the original map that I have and see what happens.. Adam Id like to try again on my pump map ... But this time i would like to use c16 on it to compensate for the noise in order not to pull timing.. Hopefully it doesn't snow much as I'd like to try it out soon.
