Any news on new Turbos?

Just wondering if anyone is in the works of building a Bolt on Type turbo that will out do the FP Green. Everyone wants the Bolt on 50 Trim type turbo. Im leaning toward the Green and METH.... I will run METH no matter what. I just love the stuff, and have had good results with it. Think I could run Meth and 28-29 psi with the green on 93 oct? I did a search for Green and meth....didnt find much.

Ehhhh get the best Aquamist....with Fail safe. HFS-5 is great.....yea its $900, but it will save your a$$ if something happens you got the fail safe. Also, if you get your car tuned on 93 octane and get a crap tank of gas Meth will keep you safe. Its all a matter of what you want. Some people are scared of meth.

I think the Green $1000 and meth $900 ($1900 total). Will make more power that a $3500 50 Trim kit (on pump gas). I could be wrong....

What other mods, besides the Meth kit and the Green do you plan on doing? Cams, O2 hsg, and TBE? How much boost are you able to run now, with the stock IX turbo, on 93?

You don't need to search to know the answer to this question. Of course you can run 28-29psi on the LT with meth+93. You can do it on the stock turbo, so you can do it on a modified stock turbo and make a lot of power.

I haven't heard of any bolt-on competitors in the works, but I'd be surprised if shops weren't out there right now trying to make one...

I highly doubt anyone is trying to create one. If they are, I also highly doubt they will be able to match the peformance and value the Green offers. Forced Performance is a no joke turbo manufacturer!

I'm sure FP will come out with a Red for the EVO, but it may not be any time soon.

I'm still hoping for a bolt-on dual BB turbo that spools the same as the Green, but flows more like ~55lb/min...

maybe one day...

Hopefully that will bring the demand down on the Evo Green so you dont have to wait so long to get one.
