Alright folks im trying to decide which turbo to get for my 2006 evo 9. The car is a strong car my tuner tells me during a recent tuning session as the car threw down 366whp and 389wtq on 27psi tappering down to 21 by redline. Turbo was running short of breath around 6500rpms and has done a best of 12.0@111 during a nopi event earlier this year when it was only making 350whp and 330wtq. Bottom line need help on A the fpgreen with its 6week to 3months waiting time for delivery or a 30r with a bit more lag then the fp help me out guys

 

if your going Drag racing, id stick with the bigger turbo. thats what i decieded im going with a 57trim

 

damn dude I feel ya. IX is my daily driver and I've been reading so many threads about this topic I'm burned out, but if I had a choice I'd probably go with the 30r

 

OP, what are your goals and main concerns with your car? That will help out alot with choosing the right one

 

I would say 30r...no waiting, and you know you are gonna want more once you max out the green....it's a tough decision....good luck...

 

FP3065.

Case close.

 

fp green and ecu boost control ftw!

 

Dude, not to be a douche but this subject gets beaten to death everyday. Please search, don't make baby Jesus cry.

 

That's a tough decision as both turbos perform very well. One of the benefits in investing in a turbo kit, such as ours, is the modularity you get with it. When you grow bored of the 30r switching to a 35r is a simple matter of swapping out the turbo and a couple other minor parts. The extra initial investment will give you a solid foundation for your current and future power requirements.

 

+! for the easy upgrade kits

 

damn I wasn't thinking like....but it makes perfect sense. def. helps with my decision.

 

i don't think there is a wait for greens anymore. someone who works there mentioned they had a bunch of the shelf. plus i ordered one for a customer a month ago and got it within a week of the order.


this was for the new purchase price though... if your having yours rebuilt then i would assume there is a big wait.

 

i would go with green, i've ran some 30r'd and 3065'd evos and they had a bit of a problem lol

 

Their is a wait for the green I called and talked to them about a week ago at fp directly. I think im leaning towards the 30r just because of the easy jump to the 35 or 37 ounce I have a 30r kit

 

If you´re going to a 30R, I´d get the 3076/3037 variation rather than the 3071. But, hey you might as well just do it once and go with the HTA 35R.
