I have a good buddy that is selling his FP Red to me... He runs e85... I run 93 oct.. The turbo will not break or anything.. I shouldnt have any problems with the turbo right?

 

Just get a tune.

 

i will get it tuned.. but that doesnt answer my question

 

I think hes talking about the exhaust from e85 gas rather than pump hurting the turbo. It won't hurt the turbo to go back.

 

As long as the turbo is in good working order than you wont run into any issues. Make sure there isnt any side to side shaft play. Also of the FP Reds that fail most seem to be due to the fact that they are getting their oil from the head. Forced Performance has a fix for this with an updated oil feed line that takes it from the oil filter assembly so make sure you have this. Other than that you should be fine although personally I wouldnt run a Red on pump gas alone as they seem to shine at higher boost levels.

 

The turbo doesnt care about the gas. ^^Ya just make sure its in good condition.

 

well when my motor goes im getting a 2.3l.... and im getting meth this winter... so i think a red will be fine IMO.. and getting an amazing deal bec it is my friend.. i think at 24-26PSI i should reach 425-450whp dyno jet

 

^Well then with meth in the equation youll definitely be able to crank up the boost Enjoy the car

 

what would hurt the turbo is hot shutdowns..... e85= lots of boost... its def not a good thing for a turbo. buy new inless its a deal. also do some research. ive been seeing more and more fp's going bad.

 

yea but FP FTW!!! they are awesome till they break

 

No e85 around you? is it your daily driver? I run e85 on mine and its like night and day. Be careful with meth

 

yea e85 to 93 wont hurt anything, but if ya got a e85 near you i would stick with that cant beat it, not converted myself but riden in a car almost same set up as me and man what a diffrence
