Hey guys so im new in the Evo world been mostly around hondas I finally decided to go with something different so I got an 06 Evo its tuned by mellon tuning its right at 480 with 430 trq at 30 psi has the Fp black turbo which is my second one already about to go on my third im runnin 20w 50 brad penn oil are these turbos known for this or is it something im doing or what?!?! Just need input to see what's up!

Well the first one came with the car only for couple hundred miles I sent it in and same story with the second one im thinking about just buying a brand new one and I don't drive my car everyday or smash on it alot either

 

Good job posting a thread telling him he is running the exact oil FP recommended.



Other than during the initial ring seat/break-in period, this engine has
AWAYS run Brad Penn 20w-50 racing oil. There are also plenty of other suitable oils available from Amsoil, Joe
Gibbs, Valvoline and Royal purple for example that fall into the same basic performance level for high pressure -
friction protection.

 

Thank you for ur help guys! All if this information was really helpful

 

Welcome to the evo world my child.Speed kills drive a honda and live forever.

 

Hahaha niice

 

fp black is spinning with the stock turbo shaft or forced performance will change it too? I'm asking it because I have an Evo 9 gt turbo with the titanium shaft.

 

never heard of someone going through turbos that fast. however, u never answered the one person who asked how many miles you drive..... and were assuming you drive nice
