Sigh...$90 for a diaphragm and gasket...wow...gotta love Greddy..oh well...at least now I can get the Evo buttoned and running proper again by this weekend. Just have the front splash shield to put on, rewire the wideband, swap out some new plugs, and fix the bov. Hopefully it should have a new home by next week *fingers crossed*

Now I have Here are my thoughts in a nutshell:

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...1&postcount=10

For me, I want to be able to daily drive, and have fun on the streets, for as long as possible. Whatever turbo I go to next needs to be able to make some good power on pump, without being too laggy. 4000-4500 for peak boost would be ideal. RED may be too big for me...but who knows. Waiting for some pump gas #'s on a more 'stock' car...

We shall see...

Looks like most of us are in the same boat.

I can deal with alot of lag, but i really need to see how the spool is on less than 30 psi before i jump on it.

the 38psi dyno posted looked laggy - but was pulling 380ft-lbs torque by 4000rpm (on buschur's dyno).

i almost wish there was something more in the middle of the green and red... maybe a brown, that i can send off the the UK for a ball bearing conversion.

*shrugs* whos in for an FP Brown?





I hope the red is the turbo for me <3

Should be waiting for me at my house All signs point to only 3mm off, so I should be fine. Apparantly 9" wide wheels fit without spacers I won't have them on until tomorrow I think though...

Nice Dex! I'm in! FP Brown FTW!! Actually, it shouldn't be toooooo bad as far as lag goes. I can deal with 380 ft-lbs @ 4000 I think a 2.3 would be a beautiful match though!!

4000rpm isnt bad if you rev to 10krpm (cant do that on a 2.3)
