BBK Lite Turbo
Your still around. I thought you were on your way back from Ohio to pick up your so called "Buschur Powered HTA Green Monster." I guess that never happened or you must of got lost on the way home.
OP BBK is a great turbo if you really want Peak powers wait until the BBK-XL comes out and just rock the lite for now.

Or you can ask Drizzy Drake he supposedly has a Buschur built HTA Green car making 43Xwhp on pump gas and supposedly working on a race gas tune with Buschur.
I think it was supposedly just the original green... lol.
I had both the Lite and Full on my IX before I got rid of it. The lite hits a little earlier and harder than the stock IX turbo, but falls of a bit above 7k. The punch of it is rediculous. The Full hits almost as hard, but a little later than the lite.. it spools very similar to the stock IX turbo. It pulls so much harder after 5k and up to the redline, it's rediculous. The Full is the way to go in my opinion.

Yes i have driven a red car before, i hate the waiting. You can't deny it doesent spool later everyone knows it does. Thats what happens with a bigger turbo. I like more instant power then top end. Its like a punch in the face right away rather then building up. Oh and caleb^ fix your sig, it reads CBRD BBK-it kinda feels ISlike after you had sex with a hot chick. Either add an"it" or delete the"is" lol

I now own CBRD Calebs BBK full car and can say that the car pulls great. Sometimes i honestly forget the car is an upgraded turbo when im just driving around. Its very daily like, if you get into it a little bit, it spools exactly like the stock turbo, but once it gets full boost, it pulls like a freight train. Very very fun turbo to drive. You can literally floor it at almost any RPM, and have boost right when the pedal hits the floor. Its that fast. Id spend a good amount of time reading about it before you make your choice.

I know this will sound Horrible but...
Since the full has a quicker spool and the red has more power at hight boost. What would be the end result on a 1/4 mile track or even a road course?
I do know the BBK was not designed for drag racing but I'm just curious what would a comparison betwwen the two look like.

wouldn't even think about the green bc it's kinda like the bbk. The bbk i would sya is more efficient and if you upgrade to the bbk full it will be cheaper also bc you already have the lite. Also the support from CBRD is out of this world.
I recently tuned a customers bbk lite build on pump gas and e85. It's an Evo 8 with kelford 272's and cam gears. Stock I/C and piping, full TBE and 3"intake to MAF. Made right at 400whp on pumpgas and we pushed out 470wtq and 470whp on e85. For this car with these particular mods this is all she has left which is damn impressive for a daily driver. These numbers were on a dynojet 424x awd dyno.
Have a bbk full Evo 9 here that I will be tuning this weekend on pump and e85 also, should be a nice comparison.

The red is laggy so the bbk is best for the street. The red would be best for drag racing. Red=higher peak numbers/ bbk=better spool up.
Personally i would get the bbk if its your daily diver. There are plenty of ppl over 400-450whp on the bbk which is a lot of power! ultimate street/track car
i havent personally experienced a bbk full but my red spools right around 3800-4000 and pulls like crazy until redline....i love CBRD and i know that turbo must be sick but i think the red only spools like 200-400 rpms later. if you are sticking to pump gas the bbk full is definitely a good choice but if you start of with the red on pump gas then get power hungry, you can add meth and that turbo will make a sh*t load of power.
