I would personally go with the MHI and sell the BB Green. When (read: if ever) you manage to get the turbo to blow, buy another one of your choosing. I personally don't think BB are worth it at that size / flow rate, and the BB Green is probably worth more, so that is the one I'd sell.

They are indentical accept for FP Green is BB and 18k is not. Both flow 54lbs a minute. If you want to save more $ keep the cheaper turbo and sell the 1 worth more. Otherwise keep the BB Green for the better boost response.

And reliability, nothing will compete with the OEM mitsu made one, aka the MHI. FP is good but the biggest problem with hogging out OEM turbos is reliability is always questionable.
How often do you hear of a mitsu turbo failing? Almost never. FP/MAP/CBRD etc, fail on a rather frequent basis.
I would sell the green and pocket the extra cash and run the MHI.

I agree, most failures are from the items mentioned above or user error, however as much as I like shops like yourself I still personally just trust mitsu to make a turbo a bit more.
I guess all the OEM mitsu turbos I have seen on evo's, dsm's etc always seem to last A LONG time and take a beating and keep on going.
But I do agree with you, valid point.
