Does anyone take the stock turbo and just upgrade the internals?
Murlo,
Whats the aprox power level of a red on 93octane at the default 18psi wga pressure?
Just curious, I'm sure I'll get it up to 25 or so, just wanna know what it'll do out the the box sort of speak.

On my dyno at wastegate on e85 i hit 338 (which is about 400whp peak on a dynojet).
So on pump I would guess you would be close to 350ish maybe.
so what is the difference between the red and green? Spool? Power output? I don't care if it doesn't light right up at 3 grand... I like saving gas when I need it anyway.
Green would be around 440 hp and red would be 480+. It really varies depending on mods and dyno and fuel and such.
Green has less lag than a Red and more than a stocker.
When I first installed my Red, I though the lag was bad. Now that I've driven it for a while, I don't notice the lag at all. I must just rev it a tad higher before shifting. It pretty much feels like the stock turbo in the stock car. But man does it pull to red line. Like, "get tickets in a flash" pulls. Seriously. Take off from a light, hit second and floor it, quickly shift to third and oh crap, going way too fast. If I shift to 4th, I'm getting in trouble. It all happens faster than you read this.

Golden my friend, how many lbs are you running on yours? Obviously your using the E85, so how many lbs would I be looking at on 93?
If you don't care about lag, go Red for sure, no reason not to. The lag between the two isn't a huge difference anyways. The transient response would be almost identical and once its spools it pulls and pulls.
One day i need a ride in that thing, lol. I have forgotten what speed is though, lol, probably couldn't compare it to my old setup. We will have to invite Golden with my old turbo!
