Talking FP Red is Here!

So the UPS guy finally showed up. I just took the boxes from him and put them in my back sheet and drove home. I say boxes because I also ordered a new PC case for my new system. So anyway lets get to the pics.

My -4 stainless steel inline filter

-4 stainless line

The FP intake which I plan on running this and then switch the a traditional intake tube to see if there is any gains or losses with one over another.

So I have made you wait long enough so here is the turbo enjoy!






I'm going away for a few days but the car is getting dropped off on Monday. So I hope to get this up, running and tuned in a few weeks.

Did I miss something. Is there a new Red come with a larger compressor housing & larger inlet? Are there any results with this setup yet (obviously from someone else)?

FP is creating their own compressor housing. They still offer the standard size compressor housing. But I wanted to go big with the parts I'm tossing in.

Nope I'm one of the lucky few who have this larger compressor and inlet.

Yes there's a new Compressor housing available now . If I'm correct he's the first to receive it with the new housing so don't think there's any results out just yet. Mine will be here Thursday and I can't wait.

I think it should be pretty impressive with the other supporting mods I purchased along with this turbo. For now I'm staying stock motor other then cams and springs and stock ECU on 93.

hmm .. i wonder what gains will be seen, if at all any with the new housing .

The regular red does amazing work and if this improves it, even slightly its going to be sweet!

congrats. man!
