Now i hope the Issue I was reading about with that turbo has been solved something inregards to the G's you will pull will make the oil go dry or something to that effect but none the less great pick up.

Oil starvation is not something new and will only affect you during sustained pulls. It isn't like the FP-Black requires 1.21 jigga-watts of power or anything like that.
BTW - for those wondering what the FP-Black is like on an everyday car (nothing built by a shop) see the link in my previous post that has a Red vs Black comparison from the same car, same day (a few hours apart, actually), and same tune. That was all done on WA pump gas, which is 92 (which I think they must just barely make the grade on cause it sucks IMO).
*edit - I wanted to add that there is nothing wrong with figures of shop cars with the black installed. Having that information before it was released was outstanding! Just that a lot of the people "interested" probably run less of a built car than some of the early info that was out there. And of course I say "interested" because a lot of the people that seem interested probably won't pull the trigger.

If you buy an fp black , you bought it for power.. If you plan in the future to run over 30 psi id recommend it.. i know a couple locals that have lifted heads on regualr arp's..
This turbo (Claims) to make great power so i would have done it as a security..
But either Way nice build man
