glad to see i'm not the only one who has had this idea but why not instead tweak the heatshield that bolts onto the hotside right under the manifold heatshield to hide everything?

Judging by the peak in the powerband, this was a 2.3L or 2.4L motor? 585 whp on a Green on a MD is amazingly high, even considering the new turbine housing and e56.

Sorry if this has been asked before..

But with your new SS housing being an open design rather than the standard twin scroll. What kind of affect would that have in terms of response on a twin scroll manifold whilst using the new housing?

Had posted this previously but may have been purged for some reason.
Combo Rundown: 2.3liter, about 9:1 CR, FP 4R cams, EVO9 so Mivec, Magnus intake manifold, BR FMIC Honeywell core, ID2000 injectors, lots of fuel pump, TRE tranny, xfer and rear diff, Tilton clutch, M800 ECU
As for the difference in the charts one is corrected and the other is uncorrected we wanted to post both together to be as transparent in our testing as possible.

It's the same as if you were running an undivided manifold.

Would it be right to assume:

FP Green - uncorrected
FP Red - corrected

from what I see on your site people can still opt out of the SS housing and get the MHI housing for an extra $300, thanks for keeping that around as it will likely help people out. As always great customer service from FP!

I received my black a few days ago. Really impressed with the design of the new housing, I sent out the turbo to SHEEPEY INC. and they are currently fabbing a downpipe for it. Should be done in about a week. I'll post photos as soon as it's done.

So, the red trace is the Red, and the green trace is the Green?

How come the Green that you only advertize as 54 lb/min shows 58 lb/min and 58 lb/min worth of power? Does it ignore the laws of physics? Does compressor inlet temp play THAT big of a role in a compressor? Is this why my car feels like a hero up north in the winter? Did Curt Brown port your head or rub his nads on the car?
