Point I'm making is a FP20gLT powered Evo w/ supporting mods is a respectable contender.

And for a bolt on turbo, it is damn impressive.
Any car can be made to be fast right? Just a matter of how much do you want to spend.

I am sure the FP green is a great bolt-on, and will probably be a mod on my wife's Evo, but you can't keep comparing 11 second Evos to 10 second S2Ks.

Well Andrea, don't get the Green, you will never be as fast as your Husband. Get a ETS 35R with meth @ 28psi and show him who wears the pants in the family.

Your ignorance will only get you the incorrect answers from members that dont have the knowledge your looking for. Set aside some time out of your busy life and do a search.

My wife knows how big my ***** is, so there is no sense in debating it.

I have spent countless hours searching on this thread and honestly created this thread without fully thinking out my question. No harm, no foul.

In case you didn't notice, he simply posted a thread inquiring about something....obviously it turned in to a big clusterfuc* of shi* talking...his S2k is bad *** and would smoke the hell out of a lot of cars out there, plain and simple.

ATP also has stock manifold direct bolt turbo aplications, I think Garret 30r's. Look into that for more options. BB center sections are nice.
I shopped around for about a year before deciding on the FP. But thats what suits me and my WHP goal.
What is your wifey's target HP #?
This will let us help you get your money's worth in whatever turbo you choose.


I never said anything about 11 sex or 10 sec's????????????????? Stop instigating. I want to try and help.

Well, here is my 0.02:

To me, an FPgreen isn't really worth it unless you are wanting a completely stealth look. I was contemplating it, but considering it's $1700, with all supporting mods, I would probably make another 40whp over what I make now on Cali's best 91 (306/309 pump 91 #s). But considering to do that, I would still need, at the least, FMIC and injectors, which would bring me close to 800-1000 bucks more. So around 2700 for about 40, maybe 50 more whp...or I can do as another member said...ETS turbo kit. 57mm kit with all supporting mods and head studs and con rod bolts is barely over 1k more than the stuff I would need for the FPgreen setup...and I should see anywhere from 80-100whp gain, on pump gas. And I could step up to the PT61 turbo and probably be in the neighborhood of 425whp on pump, but I don't think I want to deal with that much lag. There's my 0.02

Well, we already have a FMIC, so that's not an added cost

Andrea, you should do some searching on any turbo 57trim or higher to achieve those goals. 35R is more like it. A 57trim with meth will get you there on a dynojet.
