its all about price for me too. i had no problem with the "old" green as far as performance. it was just hard for ME to justify 1700 for it. if the price of the new hta green is lower then great! if they STILL offer the "reg" fp green then it SHOULD be even lower than the price of the new green. if thats the case, even better...eitherway im subscribed.

I sure hope its LOW . Its hard for an average joe, to mod a car your making payments on for the next 4 years and still have money for exspenses, food, clothes, house , ect...

It would have to be impressive indeed for me to consider touching my Green. I love this turbo as it is. I can't imagine spooling any quicker than it does already.

I am interested in learning more about this turbo as time goes on. I would consider getting mine modified to HTA standards when that time comes.

20g-lt ftmfw x 10!!!!!

Is this turbo going to make more power? or just quicker spool. The fp green already has quick stock like spool anyquicker, **** ill be building boost while crusing down the highway...?

Yes, the turbo was way too small for that car because it would run out of breath, but spooling that low made for a hell of a ride! I would love that kind of spool in the EVO, a car that could actually put the power to the wheels unlike the SRT4 that would just blow them away with all the torque.

But to the guys thinking the price will go up, think again. Price should drop when this unit gets released.

THANKS FOR THE INTEREST!

Boost ON!

When is that post going to come?

Hey Guys,

Seems like the main questions besides the "show me the data" question is price and when will we be shipping the units.

The price will drop, and since 90% of the world has a 8 instead of a 9 you get our turbo install kit with the turbo as a free gift.

When? Golly, pretty soon. Maybe a week or two? I know that half the guys that read that sentence did not see the word "maybe".

Data? Pretty comfortable releasing a screen capture of a spool up event with mass flow on it. Would that be helpful? Detailed A/B stuff will not come out until the product release.

BOOST ON!

Robert Young
