Introducing the all new FP Stainless Steel Turbine housing for EVO 9 turbo using our 67MM turbine wheel like an FP Black. Featuring a built in TiAL MV-S waste gate flange and 3" discharge this all new turbine housing will help unlock any hidden potential in your turbo setup.
You must already be using an FP turbocharger utilizing a 67MM turbine wheel to be able to use this housing will not work with 65MM or TD05H stock wheels.

Dump out the hood and a Vband 02 housing. Bang. Almost the same as my T3 kit. 2700 with wastegate and flanges plus 400 for the manifold and let's say 400 for a down pipe. 3500 bucks for a badass setup. That's $1000 cheaper than most T3 kits and most are a lot more. No need of them have cast manifolds that are as nice as FP so you would end up with a header. This will still go under a stock heat shield so it will look mostly stock. Californians are going to be bitter about the lack of 100% stealth looks. It is a great alternative. I have a Hafe cast manifold and a billet 62 and this would give most of the same benefits.

Most T3 kits are headers vs cast manifold. The FP will work with a stock manifold however. The AMS kit comes with a cast manifold and it is significantly more expensive. If you don't need over 700whp the savings are significant. There also will no longer be the downfalls of the internal wastegate. They are a pain in the ***. It would be nice though if it was a choice between the two. I would have ideally liked a twin scroll with a larger housing. But if it works it works!

I dont know where you guys are overpaying in the kit department but i built my ts t4 6466 setup for $3000
USED full race ts manifold + dp and dump tubes and LICP AND dual 44mm tial mvr $1500
NEW pte 6466 $1500
thats $3000 for a 800+whp setup.....
i could have don it much cheaper if i went with lesser quality parts or a t3 open setup that made 600whp like the black...
im just saying before it made sense because stock frame was stealth and bolt on affair. now its not only open scroll, you also need external wastegate. im a believer of twinscroll and also for the price it just falls much too close to a t3 kit and has none of the benefits of t3.
im all for innovation but cost wise this one doesnt make "that much sense" unless you are maxxing out your black...making this an option NOT standard

this is an interesting piece. not what I was expecting. I was expecting TS with divider up to the wastegate flange. will wait for some results before developing an opinion on it. a bit confused how robert tested the housing with a green turbo.? the green uses 65mm wheel, when this housing is for 67mm turbines..

Definitely not as stealthy for us Cali folks. Might as well just do a T3 at that point honestly. Seems like the T3 turbos are overall more reliable than our upgraded stock frame mitsu turbos anyhow.
So one turbo I was considering in the near future is an FP Red. So now I would have to get it with this turbine housing only?

Hmm nice piece but wheres the data showing improvements, idk ive got a brand new bb black sitting here and the extra cost of an external and custom downpipe etc seem like it put it over the top as far as being able to do a t3 setup for a few hundred more idk i want to see some NUMBERS
