Forced Performance Evo Red Turbo data
$2100 red turbo ported coated ins kit +60whp or more over IX turbo.
$ 500 after market manifold <-You should arlready have a ported stocker
$ 200 o2 housing <- you should already have this
$ 300 down pipe <- you should already have this
---------
$2100 total
There, fixed your list. Why would you go for a red when you haven't already maxed out the stock setup?
But then again you prolly don't have alky injection or an upgraded clutch either, so might as well add those to your list..... 
...bigger injectors! Add those into the cost of the red too! 
My point being, there's plenty of fun to be had with the stock turbo before you go jumping to a bigger turbo setup! This turbo is really for guys like me, I am at (or damn close) to the limit of the IX turbo, and I've already upgraded to that from my stock VIII turbo.

How about installation time? It's easier to replace stock parts with new stock parts than to install a new turbo kit and run new oil and coolant lines.
Or what if you just want it to look stock?
diggin more money on my pocket'

1799 + 45 for ported + 100 for ceramic coating = 1944 not 2100. Does Buschur charge more for porting and coating or something?

No you dont need DP, mani, and o2 but they all help make more power. It would be stupid not to use these parts how else would you max out the turbo. Sure you can get the stock mani ported coated thats $200 plus labor unless you remove it yourself then you still have to ship it and that gets pricy.

What i am saying is by the time you add up all the parts to match a typical kit your at about the same price and you can even get a cast mani 35r for $2999. So if all you want to do is go "bowling" there are better turbos.
And yes I have my red on order and its a daily.
As far as 60 whp over the stock ix not sure about that but we can all hope.

I would assume if you are going to buy the Red turbo, you would have already maxed out your stock turbo. I would also hope that people are smart enough to know that throwing a turbo that flows that much on a "stock like" Evo is pretty pointless.
If you are referring to my post, I wasn't being sarcastic. The Red will fit on all stock parts. You can even bend the stock oil and water lines. Honestly, the only new part you would need is the outlet pipe/LICP.

You guys are Haters..I'd love to take a stock evo, throw a red on it with a fuel pump, test pipe, and boost, then tune it..The thing would most likely go 11's with stock drivability and exhaust..Whats not to like about that?? Unless you like all the noise lol.

you would still need injectors to support the newfound air.
