I love the mod list and the graph. I have the same types of mods without the 02 housing and meth instead of 100octane on the stocker. I would love to have that power and have it pull strong to 8k and beyond. Can't wait to get my hands on one..

Good job Robert. Tell Groc that he can get the mileage on the highway, you'll do the driving at the track. Besides, I thought he only played in the dirt. Nice to see the graphs and parts list. Sorry Maximo, you're still my number 1 burger flipper.

it's very impressive as it is but with so many stock parts and stock appearing turbo it's even more so.

what was the 60'?

the red looks like an easy ticket to 400whp on pump.

Nice numbers.

But I have a question. Why did you dyno it with 100 oct? Why didn't you do it with 91 or 93 oct? I just think that it'll be better for us to understand the characteristic of the turbo better, because that's what we pump in the car most of the time.

Most of my customers are seeing 380-400 with the green on 93 and none of them have heads or even the best cams etc... just your normal setup. I'm hoping the Red would put them at 400 minimum and maybe 425+ that would be nice on an average working guys setup.

post #1 has a dyno sheet. It made 300 ft-lbs at like 4100rpm, I'd say its only like 600-700rpm slower then a stock 8 turbo.

Kick *** power FP!

I only drive the car on 100 octane fuel. I have not had 93 in the tank for a loooong time. The main reason is that the Motec M800 does not have a knock control feature and I cannot risk hurting my motor during testing. If the motor breaks during testing then you HAVE TO START ALL OVER, which pretty much sucks. So I spend $5.99 a gallon on the 100 and dont sweat being on the "edge" counting on the knock retard to bail me out when it comes to the timing map - that way I dont hurt anything. It is a matter of finishing without failure vs failing and not finishing the test battery at hand.

I see what you mean.

I've recently started looking at your FP turbos. How would you compare this to your FP Green and the Green HTA?

The 68mm HTA wheel developed to replace the existing Green wheel turned out to not speed match the existing Green turbine wheel as well as the stock TD05H, so that evolved into the white model. That turbo is all response, with a couple extra lb/min of flow upstairs and a reduction in air temps.

The Green is what is always has been.

The Red spools up a little slower than the Green, but makes lots more power. I'd say that most guys will spool the Red up at about 4200rpm.

This is where Groc got mad at me, 1.83sec

One of the biggest contributors to the power of the Red model is our new 67mm turbine wheel. It dwarfs the stock 56mm wheel as well as the 60mm wheel used in the Green. The 60mm turbine wheel has served us well over the years, but I think the writing is on the wall for it at this point. It is almost as laggy as the 67mm wheel on the same compressor and cannot deliver as much power to the shaft as the 67mm wheel either. At the same time the turbine pressure stays below a 1:1 ratio to a much higher engine RPM with our new 67mm turbine wheel.

We see 20 PSI at 3500 in 5th, 'spool' is completely dependant on load and gearing.
