Forced Performance Evo Red Turbo data
This was a LOT to read from scratch and am very interested. I have a GT3071R with HKS 272 cams on order because I plan on using my EVO IX as a daily driver with 91 octane and boost never above 23psi. But if this turbo looks like it will work for my setup, then damn I'm sold. I shall wait like the rest of you to see the results... Subscribed!
It was something to do on a 1 3/4 hour drive :shrug:
It's not like it's a ton of fun to make highway pulls in a low 12/high 11 second car for that amount of time
Been there, done that and then some for years--not that novel anymore.

I hear ya, I don't know how you have the patience for it though. I have 500awhp on tap and I'm finding it impossible to go through an entire tank of gas without getting on it at least once. I'll never know my best gas mileage figure but really, does it matter if I'll never drive that way again?

For the money, the stock IX turbo should be better on straight 91 than the 3071. The 3071 is, relatively speaking, a dog on 91, and at low boost levels as well.

a motec is just like any other control system. its going to have to tell injectors how long to open, and its going to have to tell the coils to fire. thats not going to suddenly cause your car to get >30% fuel efficiency then any other evo (and for most evos, thats a 100% improvement in fuel efficiency). you still have a stock engine and its efficiency hasn't changed that drastically.
how about when you fill up next, reset the tripometer. then when your out of gas, let us know how many miles you have gone, and how many gallons of gas you have to put back in the tank. thats going to be more accurate then integrating your pulse width over time, especially considering your injector latency is going to play an enormous effect.

Fast Frank just updated to the FP4R intake and FP5R exhaust and it worked pretty darn good for him. I suggested the 5R exh since his engine was a 2.3, normally a pair of the 4R would be good.
We have been out of stock on the EVO9 grinds for a while, but it shouldnt be much longer for those who have been waiting so patiently I thank you in advance

Probably going to want to look at the FP4R, Jun 272, Kelford 272, GSC S2, or HKS 280 cams with this turbo if you still drive the car every day.
Good quality springs and retainers are definitely a good idea with a more aggressive cam, or if you will be revving above 7900 on any cam, even a milder one.
I just got my Red tuned at Buschur Racing today so I figured I would throw the results up here. Pump gas only (93 oct) 419whp on the BR Mustang dyno @29psi. Mods : BR 2.0, BR race FMIC, BR IC piping, BR intake pipe with K&N filter, AMS head, GSC 280 cams, Works o2 housing and down pipe, noname resonator, B&B catback, ported exhaust and intake manifold, AEM ems. I haven't scanned the dyno graph yet, but when I do I will post it. I am very happy with this turbo 
. GREAT power up top and spool that I can live with. Feels like a whole different car from when it had the White Rabbit 9. Thanks Dave for the killer tune!
