It had NOTHING to do with my "tooner" It was the small hotside mixed with the HTA+twinscroll odd ball combo.. and in a t3 platform.. We didn't even finish tuning due to my valve seals leaking from supertech dual install with stock valve seals..

Now... Lets get BACK on topic PLEASE!!

2.3 with 3076

running 91 w/10% ethanol.
29.3 psi tapering to 27.5
7600 rpm limit (cann go to 8500) never taken above 7600
I built it. 10k+ miles
a few drag strip runs, mostly highway stuff tho

I love my stroker because of the torque I get out of it for daily driving. I only kinda slightly wish I did the built 2.0 for the added RPM's. But only slightly

That's what I was getting at. Sorry, back on topic...
Nobody else can tell you what you need, just the characteristics of either. You need to decide what your true needs are and where you want the power. Do that, and the choice will become clear to you.

Then you have to decide on whose dyno, on what kind of gas, with what kind of margin of safety your looking for

It's tough, everything is a compromise with the FP Red looking like the do anything turbo, even on a budget!

I agree... to an extent... a Red NEEDS race gas to really see it shine.. you can have a 35r on pump gas making 100awhp more power than a red on pump..

You have a 2.3L scorke.. why don't you post up your data with it...

you should make up your mind on what kind of racing/use you want to do and then choose your built after that. Plus your asking for alot of work for alot of people who probably would rather click the back button
