Is this a green or a 9 turbo?

After running 12.1 @ 113 with a 1.7 60.' I have to ask if the used car I bought actually has a green. Aniel @ FP said he could recognize if it was a green by taking pictures of the comp housing which I have done and I have email/pm'd him. I am waiting on a response from him. I was dyno tuned and made 348AWHP on mustang dyno. He also told me they sometimes run out of stamps. The turbo on the FP site doesn't have a stamp on it.

I'd say it's either an FP Green, an FP White Rabbit, a BR 20G-9-5, or an FP White. I am going by the FP 5-bladed compressor wheel, or maybe I am way off base. Granted, it wouldn't be the first time that I am wrong.

I'm pretty sure the stock EvoIX's have a 6blade compressor wheel. I think this is some type of 20g variation, but I don't know if it's a Green for sure or not.

I run an early example of the FP Green and the "FP" stamp is not visible anywhere on the external cast surface of the comp housing. My turbo is only stamped on the milled mating surface of the turbine housing inlet which bolts up directly to the exhaust manifold outlet flange. With all due respect, I don't know what Ariel is refering to on the compressor housing.

Maybe I should say the compressor blades then.
