My wife says...increment the time unit and triple the number.

so if I say 2 hours, that means 2x3 = 6, hours-> days.

2 hours = 6 days.

It'll be interesting to see if the turbos work as well as promised...I know T1 didnt run his ET turbo very long before looking into other options..A back to back test with the FPblack would be an awesome place to start..

I do not want to railroad the OP's thread with this, since this is not on the topic of the OP's Evo build but since it was mentioned.

Tony's post on honda-tech.

"I did test a turbo from Extreme Tuners, it worked great but wasn't quite enough. Gotta keep in mind, this 72mm compressor market is very very advanced, the record setting turbos have quite a bit of development in them. This was ET's first go at it and they want to make some changes and try again. We'll see what the future holds, lots of good development going on in the 72mm compressor world. "

Yes thanks for the update. Hoping to hear more results from the other owners as quite a few guys here are showing interest now

I was expecting to see record breaking horsepower levels as claimed, maybe 150-200 more than the competition and better spool up... It seems that real world testing is a bit different than computer models and theories...

I am curious on what brand turbo Tony is using now...

they said 1780 is starting price (i assume that means before you decide to do titanium and ****). Also, i assume that's in Euro's.

No problem. Seemed best to just directly post what Tony said so I do not sound like I am speaking for him or try to interpret it in a way not intended.

Sorry OP to stray from the topic. Can't wait to see more of your build and hope it comes out great.

Yes that is the price in euro's with 3" anti-surge cover and uprated actuator according to a thread in on the MLR right now. That is also journal bearing fed, if you want dual ceramic ball bearing core add 480 euro's.
