Any new FP-BLK or BBK-XL info????

I was wondering if there has been any additional testing / sitings of these 2 turbos?

We have been setting record highs here in Fla. Maybe it's because they crashed that thing into the moon

Forced performance dyno testing their FP Black at a Cobb Dyno Dyno. It's on 2.3L stroker and Sunoco 260GT 100 unleaded race gas. FP Black's compressor wheel is 1mm smaller than their 35r with the Red's turbine wheel.

FP Black
81mm HTA compressor wheel ??(1mm smaller than their 35r)
70lb/min??
67mm turbine wheel – 60/67

compared to

FP Red
76mm HTA compressor wheel - 56/76
57lb/min
67mm turbine wheel – 60/67

i understand it is in testing phase but that is not a great looking curve, its more like a hicup of power and then on its face it goes. not very impressive and doesnt look like that much fun to drive on the street, but could work well on the strip i guess.
