Has anyone emailed Fp about this yet? Maybe a machine shop could match this to the hotside of the green, red, or black?

this is somewhat off topic but I noticed the evo x hotside looks identical to our hotside. ( yes I know the compressor side doesn't) and it is a 12.5. Has anyone tried that?!?!?

Im pretty sure the x turbo switched rotation again whereas our turbos r reverse rotation. If so then it wouldn work I think cause then our turbo would spin backwards and suck air out of the motor

I am seriously considering purchasing this. why the hell not. I have a 10.5 hotside already and if I'm not satisfied I'll just swap it back over. I'll keep yall updated.

btw: will this work on an 8?

It has to fit since we can swap a 8 hotside for 9 hotside. I also saw that and i was wondering if it is really a 11.5 cm or just a misreading of a stock 9.8 hotside since part number end with 115 and the 10.5cm part number end with 105.

Still i'm thinking of giving it a try too. In description it says upgraded\ported.

This is what they said about the housing:

Hi Ramses,

This is new casting of a ported 11.5cm.

Yes Robert will do it. If the quality of the material causes a failure FP won't warranty it.

Rams, at least they knew it was a 11.5cm and not 11.5 a/r.

I wouldn't mind trying it but I'm single scroll so this won't work for me...

I am trying to get them to send me pics of a 10.5cm & 11.5cm next to each other, so we'll see.

no no no, you are doing it all wrong. Tell them you will pay "cost" for the hotside and in return you will install/dyno it before and after for them and you will provide them all the results to put up on their site.
