Stealth look? Most upgraded and not huge turbos can look stealth. If I were you I'd just get an FP green. Fast spool and can handle 450 easily. Put it on race gas and watch what it does

Stock turbo E85.

Anything else is just lag if that's all you're looking to make.

Do they have E85 in Bahrain??? LOL


Either way, any of your FPred/BBK-B/EF3 should do.

2500$ .. the extra cash would go for supporting mods i.e core IC + Extra's to reach that kind of HP safely

Ok you're right, it can, but you'll have to throw every supporting mod possible at it. There are way better choices to make that amount of power on pump gas.

$2500 is gonna go quick. Start checking the F/S threads, you'll need an intercooler and injectors, whether or not you want to buy a used turbo is up to you.

I agree with grillpt. You may have to go the used route. Is there much of an Evo following out there? I'd imagine shipping is going to eat up a chunk of change.

I bought used injectors and turbo and had decent luck. I bought a new FMIC. So it can be done. Don't forget to get new OEM gaskets, bolts, studs, nuts and washers. Try to get the turbo with the J-Pipe or you may have to get a IX J-Pipe. I personally would get new lines too. $h!t adds up!

You thinking about throwing in cams too? That's a decent chunk of HP/TQ for it's cost.
