the new HTA green is a kick azz turbo. no question it will put a hurtin on old green. no question (to me) it will kick a BBK to the curve as well.

Good pics for comparison. Nice add Jerry.

Edit: Ooooh, outin' the BBK? I'm happy with mine. Still waiting to see more results from the HTA73.

I am glad to see that there is no evident drug paraphenalia on your desk. Nice compressor ****!

Not questioning what you say, but I'd love to see some more data on HTA Green running on pump gas compared to the BBK full on pump. Is the HTA Green configured with the same turbine wheel as the FP Red?

The HTA Green doesn't share the same turbine wheel with the FP Red/Black, does it? If not, I'd be curious to know if the HTA Green's compressor wheel could be combined with the Red/Black's turbine wheel?

the wheel is downsized similar to compressor downsize.
I dont know why people cant trust robert and grocmax word when they made the new green they had a BBK to test it against. the BBK beats the old green. thats why they designed the new green. why on earth would they make it not outperform the turbo they were trying beat?

Don't get me wrong. I run a Robert Fuller turbo. My "Old-School" FP Green has been a trooper for over 40K miles. It has never missed a heartbeat! Good Luck!

It's just that for a while I have been wondering if I could have FP combine the HTA Green compressor wheel with the larger Red/Black turbine wheel, that's all. I personally would just prefer it that way, as I am partial to further reducing turbine back pressure.

EDIT: Sorry if I jacked your thread. I really enjoyed the pics, though.

The hta green has the same design turbine wheel as red but 2 mm smaller. The compressor puts out 54 lbs/min compared to the reds 56 lbs/min. I like the green better spool than red n only 20 HP difference.

So, will this eventually turn into the third thread we'll see with HTA Green dyno data? Otherwise all of the claims that it is superior to the BBK are going to keep fading away. As it sits now, the only real good comparo we have is from Mellon, and it was largly agreed upon that they performed nearly identically.

Awesome turbo pr0n pics tho! Thx for the comparison pics.
