im jel.. you guys are getten fp black. im still stuck w my fp green(old school)

 

i just told MAP to cancel my fp black im gonna go a dif route and get a built shortblock and run the hell out of a spare 35r for a lil while. tired of waiting 3 months for the black. 2.1 or 2.4 now is the ?

 

last thing they told me at MAP was first week in Jan.... might cancel and go with ATP

 

lol, you could upgrade to a Red or Black lol.


I love how people are now saying where they ordered from. If you call FP and ordered from MAP then its not FP lol its on MAP. I like MAP and their pretty good but I waited awhile for my Red and it was worth it.

 

I guess I don't know what is being said here so this is hard to respond to. We, MAP, would and have not sold a single turbo under false pretenses. When FP tells us it will take 2-3 weeks to produce and it takes longer, as long as I do my best to keep my customer in the loop as to what is going on and do my best to offer them a solid option, then I believe I have done my job.

If indeed you have ordered a FP from us and you are interested in the status of your order, then by all means, please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to look into the time line for you or research and option you require us too!

Fundamentally tho, I believe the turbos are worth the wait and getting your order in sooner rather than later does not hurt. It merely ensures that you have your ticket in hand when the turbos start going out and it gives FP a better idea of how much they need to be making and ordering parts for. If you hold off on your order, then you run the risk of putting in an order that wont make it out and it might get delayed even further. Of course I tend to lean more towards the side of patience when there is a product I want that I cant seem to find immediately available. That being said, I am the first to admit, waiting can be frustrating!

 

no arguments there well updated

 

Fp will change the stock turbo shaft when upgradeing it to hta green, red or black ?
I have an evo 9 tme turbo with the titanium shaft.. ( and magnesium wheel ) from the non blowing up series.

 

The shaft is integral with the turbine wheel, so yes, it will be changed, because a larger turbine wheel is used in the RED OR BLACK. I'm not sure which turbine wheel is used in the HTA Green. All three use a larger and billet HTA compressor wheel, so the compressor wheel will be changed too.

I'm sure they'd send you back your stock parts if you wanted to keep them.

 

Both the FP Black, and the FP Red are configured with the same exhaust wheel. The HTA Green, on the other hand, is configured with a different, and somewhat smaller wheel than the other two.
