bbk or fp red?

So I have done my homework, looked high and low and there is so much info on the two turbos, however it seems near impossible to get a FP red, so I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions or thoughts, maybe just do the BBK full, or wait it out and get the red? would like to hear what you guys think

What are you talking about ?? There are a hand full of vendors that have the red in stock and a few used in the FS section.

People need to stop making stup!d threads.......Sorry but Im tired of all these Fp Red vs BBK. : \

This one will probably be deleted... Theres so much info out there just search. They're 2 completely different turbos so to me it sounds like you have no idea what you want.

If you want a Red why on Earth would you settle for a BBK or anything other than what you want? If you cant find one in stock then just wait a little while. Or on second thought, order the BBK and then sell it to me used when your Red comes in...haha

Two different turbos. To say one is better than the other is crazy. I chose the FP Red personally.

How about what are your goals. Both turbos are great but they are geared for different use. The red is more of a drag turbo the BBK dare I say is more of a auto X turbo.
