It's a journal bearing. And it would suck for autocross but it's really not that bad on the street. I'm mostly going to drag it but I still plan on hitting the road course.

OP, i'll be getting my car back from the shop real soon after having some work done, including an SS housing fp black on a 2.0. I'll update back when the tune is finished up.

If you have a stock frame turbo, I don't know why you'd want anything other than a TS housing. If you really want huge numbers, get an aftermarket turbo.

That's my 2 cents anyways...

Previously my EVO 8 had a HTA3586 on it and was a tad laggy but "doable". I'm guessing real world "spool" is probably between a 3582 and a 3586 (guessing). Anyone who has input please feel free to respond. (Goals are 450-470whp ish on 93 octane, 550whp on E85)

Just had built motor and trans completed by Raif over at RRT and I have the Fp black SS housing JB I will be running E85 so well see what I make hoping to make full boost by 4700ish and hope to make power around 620whp ish

OP, I finally got my car back and got to drive it a little bit on the street tune. If you plan on running an SS housing FP black on a 2.0, prepare for lag city. The car wont wake up until about 4800 rpm. Which is pretty much the general consensus when this turbo/displacement question comes up. The lag doesn't bother me, but it all depends on what you want to build your car for. Once it hits the dyno, i'll repost results and graph so you can see the power curve.
