Mmm...a taste of RED to quench the thirst

Oh yeah, this beauty landed on my doorstep today . I would like to thank Robert, and everyone else over @ FP for putting in all the hard work to produce this technological marvel. With all their R&D and dedication we would never have a product so awesome. The amazing numbers the RED pumps out would not be possible, especially on a bolt-on application. Thanks for dealing with me as I called MANY times lol, from the whole shipping problem (usps screwed me HARD), to getting little details worked out. I'm sure they were sick of hearing me, especially Brian. Results will be in soon enough, shooting for a target date of around March. Still got a bunch more stuff coming in (sig) that I need to have on before the RED goes in as well as making the switch to E85. Well onto the pics here they are (sorry for the quality taken with my phone).............







Check out the beautiful port work....

I waited exactly 1 month 1 day, from there doorstep to mine. They received on the 16th of October, I received on the 17th of November. I sent a core in for the conversion.

I know it's going to drive me crazy, but the way I look at it, it will be so much more worth it when I have that lopey idle, and everything else tapping much more into it's potential. I guess good things come to those who wait .

beautiful, i wish the porting option was available when i got mine. but its ok the red kicks *** you will love it. looks like you did not get the fp red badge on your 9 turbo either. i sanded it completely & looks like a plain wall haha. atleast when you pop your hood it'll look factory without the fp red badge flauntings its name. sleeper baby !!! you'll love it, but days will go slow being that the turbo is just sitting your gonna wanna install that bad boy stat haha.

SRT-TO-EVO,

This is OT, but where do you get E85 from in your area?

Thanks
