FP Red vs. CBRD Version 2 BBK
FP Red vs. CBRD Version 2 BBK
I have been looking at both turbos and they both seem to get great reviews and great feedback. They both seem to have similar abilities.
Which one would be better for a street, not much turbo lag, and the every once in a while strip use?
What are the characteristics of the two?
Is the BBK more comparible to the Green or Red?

Its more like a green from what i hear. but i dont really know much about that turbo. what i can tell u is that i have a red with meth and i love it. The car should have come with this turbo stock imo. what i also can tell u is that the red is capable of well over 500whp. with similar torque #'s. All those big turbos have tons of hp but lack in torque. On the other side the smaller turbos have lower hp #'s but awesome torque #'s. Hp is nice but torque wins races! Its good to have a good amount of both and that is what the red does best. Good luck with ur decision!
i think he is talking about bbk2 , wich is a bigger turbo ....
call cbrd , and get the scoop on this turbo , let them tell u if this is a good set up for u
fp red is a good turbo if u have the supporting mods to make it shine at high boost , if ur going to buy an fpred to do 22pounds its not a good idea , high boost and it will shine buddy , this red loves the e85 ,

That's because it's not yet out. 
Dunno why the OP is already comparing the Red to something that is not yet out.
It's more aptly named BBK-XL actually. More can be found on this link

I doubt the BBK-XL will make the peak power that the red does, but I also doubt that it will have the lag the red does, and I also doubt that it will have as many failures as the red has, and I know I would much rather support the likes of cbrd..
My assumptions are based off a local guy who is testing the non billet version of the BBK-XL, and Im sure the billet version will do that much better. Cool thing is is that current BBK owners will also have the option of upgrading to the XL for a reasonable cost as well.

Lets see what this baby can do Chad!
^you are also a crazy muh-fuggah, Mike! 
The BBK-XL is definitely an interesting option that I would have considered but I had received my Red before even hearing about it. ssteve, you forgot one major assumption: I doubt the BBK-XL will take much more than 2 days to ship...as opposed to 2 months.

I agree that FP makes good products (hell, Chad is the first to praise their products) but the guys at CBRD are nothing short of amazing based on what I hear time and time again.
BTW - you are forgiven! LOL!
