FPEvogreen Or FP3065

I cannot decide between these 2 turbo's???

Any advice/experience please

What's the difference between spool-up/lag and power and setting up and tuning etc.

TIA

Assuming the Green actually works as advertised (which hasn't been proven with a normal setup or by non sponsored members) than theres no question that the Green is the better option. I have a 3065 and I haven't been too impressed with it and the spool up is absolutely horrendous.

For a stock motor with all the usual bolt ons+cams I'd go with the Green, for a more extreme setup I'd skip straight to a GT35R.

the green definatley will spool up faster, only a couple hundred rpms later than stock, my 3065 hits full boost at 4700 its not as bad as ppl say, i dont mind the lag at all

the 3065 will make about 10-20hp more on pump gas and about 50 more on race gas

The only car I've seen run impressively was DragNRacing's car and he's always run above average times. I've also seen mostly AEM tuned results which don't represent what most of this turbo's intended audience will be utilizing.

Should you change both cams or just the exhaust cam? (mivec can tune intake cam?)

TIA

Would a race manifold be worthwhile with the FP green over stock mani?

The 3065 will make a lot more than that

I just did 533awhp on my FP3065 with my Eclipse and that was at 28psi. It still has about ~5 more psi in it until its out of its sweet spot. IMO these two turbos are not comparable, Green vs. 50trim is more like it.
