10.5 vs Evo9 Turbo vs 20G vs EvoGreen

Ok, I am debating which setup I want to go with. They all seem great and a nice difference in price. After searching over the last few months, I just cant find the answers I am looking for.

Does any one know the flow rate differences between them all? I have read the green flows 17 more lbs per min than the evo9.

Next, is the cost per hp.

10.5 hotside (About $175) 15whp gain = $11.66 per hp
Evo9 turbo (About $500 25-30whp gain = $17.85 per hp
20G (Not the Green) = ?
EvoGreen (About $1450 used) 35-40whp gain = $38.15 per hp

These are based on pump gas. Race gas, im not sure. The hp numbers above are simply a guess, im not sure if they are correct but it obviously gives us a rough idea of cost per hp.

I dont plan on going with meth until around May. Looking to have a high 11.8-11.9 sec car on pump gas. Let me know which would be the best decision for me.

You could do high 11's on the 10.5 and E85 or Meth and of course supporting mods.

if you're just going to do pump gas I wouldn't get too excited about a green, the gains aren't big enough to justify the cost in my opinion.

however, if you're looking for every last HP and can spare no expense then get the green.

10.5 and some good driving

For the cost - Evo 9 turbo. Green is great with high psi - but for a pump only car Id save the cash and get the 9.

Yeah. Still cant make a decision. Good info though guys, keep it coming. At this point, I think with pump gas and a cheap solution, the evo9 should be my route. Even if I get the meth with it, it will perform well imo...and last me until im ready for a new setup, like GT30R.

How much whp am I looking at with the 9 on pump vs meth? Id like over 400 on meth.

Evo 9 with meth will give you around 390awhp. An evo green will give you around 420awhp. On pump the 9 will get you around 360awhp. The green on pump about 5-10 hp more.

I'm 100% for maxxing out the turbo before moving on. The bottom line is Greens have seen 125mph+ with 9sec9 showing true potential. I'm sure that car will see 130mph traps and 10.50's.

I'm waiting in expectation for Mellons review of the 35RHTA on pump in the near future that should be some good info.

Here's the best I could squeeze out of the Evogreen, 25-26psi spike on 93 octane:

I hope to have the BR 35R HTA + tubular header installed next weekend. I'm going to push the hell out of it to

Amen to this. On pump gas, you can't even feel the different between the Evo 9 turbo and the FP green. But on race gas, that's another story.

Back to the topic, you best bet (as far as money wise) to get into the 11's on pump gas would be the Evo 9 turbo. I've done it with race gas and 30 psi, but there are a lot of people have done it on pump gas.
