I had the black and then switched to a t3 setup it was the.biggest waste of money for that turbo...you have to run a crap of boost to make power and it doesnt hold boost as good.but you might like the turo cause your adding a 02 dump anyways i bet you if you drive a t3 setup you will sell the.black..o ny the.way when you run more then 33 psi daily on the black it not gonna last long..

Please define "crap[load] of boost."

Please define "doesn't hold boost as good."

Thanks.

If you can't afford a t3 setup the black is a good deal and I think works good. I'm boosting 35psi and it drops to low 30s at about 7100 rpm

Shearer - because it's the best along with the JM Fab one (they use the JM Fab flange that has the wastegate area ported well). I cleaned mine up a little bit though so it should flow even better.

What if you can afford a T3,T4 setup but you feel its a waste of funds when the fp black as proven it can do 700+whp more then enough for any average evo driver LOL

cant wait to see the boost & power compare of the 2 turbos.

as well as the o2 dump compare on the blk.!!

I have been waiting for the latest bbk....but i dont know how much longer i can hold off for.

The fp-black has proven to be very strong & reliable.
