Don't quote me but I'm fairly sure that Chad said that it will not flow quite as much as a Red. I think he said 54lbs/min... Chad is that correct?

Thanks Luis, yea I'm staying on stock block, the turbo has been on the car for a couple of weeks like I said I need to put in the double pumper. We're positive this turbo will make really good power.

Ok cool, you should be able to break 500 no problem IMO, which is getting into FPRed territory but with quicker spool

I've heard 400-600 max kicked around but I'm sure anything is possible. Was just hoping for confirmation. If its that much I could sell my BBK and put more money on it and go get a black. LOL.

Slightly more,

56 ish

The compressor wheels are in production, that is the hold up

It is officially called the BBK-B,

anyone with an existing BBK will be given a special customer loyalty upgrade price if they want to upgrade, I dont have the final investment price yet, but I should shortly

should have got one of those(blacks) to begin with. I told you about playing with childrens toys. Hopifully the upgrade price is as your saying 400-600 only. Im sure turnaround time will be quick as they do get there turbos out the door quick.

I just sent turbo to FP for HTA green. I honestly would be satisfied with the BBK full as is has certainly proven itself time and time again. Another good sign of how well it works is the guys that own them dont want to part with them. makes for a fun car leaving owners in no desire to upgrade. just not many results posted of the HTA green. But that doesnt mean its not a better beast, in the end it was the upgrade cost that swaded me. 1250 for BBK Vs. 869 for HTA green. turbos are likely very close anyway to for 280 less it was no brainer for me. I can wait..

Thats what I'm talking about....should hopefully have Mona in a few weeks. Gotta get some side jobs to get this upgrade.

Can't wait on pricing and some more real world testing/results.

LOL on the childrens toys comments Rock, you crazy.

unfortunately, when you do speak your mind, it really isn't to your credit. since we're all being so honest here, how long until you actually install your black? or will that just stay "in the closet" until the next FP turbo is released? (which is what happened to your FP Red, for those that didn't know)
