I am thinking about getting one of these and I want everyones input on this. The guys that have them or have had them whats your take on it and advantages and disadvantages. Also is this pretty much the same as the new Evo Green turbo? just wanna know the facts before I spend the money.

 

Do you have a link to one of these turbos. I have seen it mentioned a couple of times now ?

 

bump

 

What are you looking to do with this turbo?
What kind of racing?

Need just a little more info on what you are looking to do with your car before we can give you any advice.

 

yes its the same as the evo green, search evo green and there is a hundred threads on it

 

I dont think its the same as the green. The green is a better/higher flowing turbo

 

evo green?

 

No it's not, it's a completely different turbo.

While some people were happy with it, it was regarded as an overall over-hyped and very underperforming turbo, with slight advantages over stock.

The FP green is superior to this turbo in every way.

As someone said before, if you search, there is plenty of info on both turbos.

 

The differences are not that much from the FP Green with the only difference is really the Hotside Wheel. But in terms of performance it does make a difference. of about 30-40 hp.

 

I have done some research and I want to keep a stockish like spool and things like that. I dont want a GT 37R or anything like that because I dont want the lag and I dont really wanna make over 500 whp. I think Ill be ok with 440-450 whp and where I live thats pretty much all I need. Also from what I see the main difference between this turbo and the Green is compressor wheel and the amount of air the Green can flow......I think

 

so there's a turbo system for the evo that can jack it up over 400?

 

the green turbo sounds like it is the one you need to get.

 

Nope the Jedi was right, always listen to the Jedi. They have the same compressor wheel. The green has a larger turbine wheel.

 

no

 

Yup, Jedi is correct. The only diff is that the Green has a larger higher flow turbine wheel whereas the WR-9 has the Titanium-Aluminide turbine wheel from the TME 6.5 turbo.

The WR-9 should spool better than the Green. There is some guy on the forum that is getting more than 410 WTQ & WHP on 93 octane from the WR-9 on his VIII. So, it's not that shabby.
