Anybody have an overlay of a BBK-B and an FP Red?????
Now that I am writing this, I realized that the OP doesn't have cams..and I do. With that said it was 440 whp/428 tq on a dynojet with the following mods:
bb fp red, megan 02 housing, ported stock exhaust manifold, 3" tbe, fic 950cc, 255lph, ets fmic, S2 cams/beehive springs, arp headstuds
bb fp red, megan 02 housing, ported stock exhaust manifold, 3" tbe, fic 950cc, 255lph, ets fmic, S2 cams/beehive springs, arp headstuds
, so how's the spool of the bb red compared to stock ix turbo?
Oh I completely agree about having more potential. Its just my DD and I didn't want to be on my way to work and have something give out. I was shooting for just over 400, and I figured that could hold me over until I had the time/funds to build a block.
I'm definitely not saying that the bbk is a bad turbo though, I was actually considering it myself before I picked up the red. I've seen people talking about the BB BBK a little, but haven't heard of the BBK-C. I'll have to look into it.
Drifting Away, that is pretty good numbers. just out of curiousity, is that on e-85 (referring to your sig)? I've tossed the idea around, but I don't really know where to get it around here so I just run 93 all day.

I am looking for any direct comparo of a JB Red vs. JB BBK-B. Not really interested in power numbers just the relative spool difference between the two turbos. I was under the impression that the BBK-B spools a bit quicker than the Red. Are we talking a couple hundred RPM, or what?
Or still comparing apples to apples, it would be equally informative to compare the spool up of the BB-Red to that of the BB-BBK-B(aka 3B, I think).

That's exactly the two turbos I'm also interested in. I looked for a comparison but couldn't find one...
...
A big advantage is, that the BBK-B has a real genuine Garrett GT28 CHRA. Where there is no longterm operating experience of the new dual ceramic ball bearing design from FP.

The Garrett CHRA is NOT an advantage in this comparison...
other then being proven to work over and over again.... ive seen gt28r's with 60K miles on them running strong. fp's "cutting edge technology" hasnt proven anything yet. id rather get something that i know will last.
+1. Nothing against FP at all but I feel the same way. 2/3 years from now it may be different.
