The numbers look great, but I think it's kind of an unfair comparison don't you think? I'm in favor of the Tomei and eventually I'm going to purchase one. However the Tomei HP numbers are at 29&31PSI, but the FP Green is at 28 PSI. To be fair to the FP Green, I think Tomei should be tested at 28psi as well.

Anyway, can't wait to see the graph overlay.

The Green had more boost and made much less power. The tomei is a WIN! The compressor housing looks bigger... how is the exhaust housing?

Wow that is some great results with this turbo gives another option to the guy's thats in the market for this type of upgrade, so should we compare this turbo to the red instead of the green now since it's made well over the greens power?

Great results!

Seems like all the homework and testing, that Tomei goes through, really does pay off.
Would love to see the graph!

Can't wait to see the graph with an overlay of the Green. Boost characteristics, how it holds up high, when it hits peak, etc

What was the temperature on the days these runs were performed? Isn't Florida getting hit w/ a cold spell right now. Just wondering if there are some gains from colder ambient air.
