um no actually it spools later than a green.

and define a lot....the most anyone has gotten on a 50 trim is 500whp....the limits on the green are still up in the air.

That is dumb. You SHOULD have cams before you upgrade the turbo. Period. For christ sake the people SELLING the turbo (D.B.) even said don't get it unless you have all supporting mods first, like cams, FMIC, etc.

If youre going to be a little ***** about "not opening up the motor" maybe you should go buy a Prius I not directing the motor comment specifically at you so dont take it that way. Cams are cheaper than a turbo upgrade.

apprehensiveness on the evo forums....

go easy; if you'll read i said it was my opinion. IN MY OPINION, i would rather have all bolt-ons (besides cams) + green rather than bolt ons + cams + stock turbo. thats just me. and im sure SOME agree.
