*Edit: reduced prices. 3/20/15 FP Green BB: Price $2000 + shipping Invidia O2 High Flow Housing: $190+ shipping FP Green Ball Bearing Turbo with approximate 1-2K Miles on it BEFORE it was sent to Forced Performance for inspection and re-certifcation under warranty. This turbo was purchased by the owner of Wingz Performance as part of my 2.3 stroker build and installed by him/his tech. Upon receiving the turbo back from FP, it has remained in the original box until I opened (while video recording and taking pictures) for this post. Phoung (Wingz Performance) and I were informed by Robert at FP that upon his inspection this turbo was & is within spec but that he would service it and clean it up under warranty. He has also guaranteed that it is salable and I have additional evidence to support this statement if required. Serial# R69074583 Part# 48378-96010 Below are the pics and videos* I took for this post to include a video of my re-sealing it in original packaging from FP and signing my initials and date across the tape: Invidia O2 Housing - Has less than 100miles on it. Invoice *Videos of opening and re-packaging can be provided separately as I didn't feel like trying to find a place to host them.

What hot side/turbine housing. 64mm usually refers to the compressor cover, which is their 84mm in the picture.

And do you have a picture of the invoice/repair order? Thanks

Would you be possibly interested in a trade? I have a 1000 mile FP HTA3586 BB AKA 35r...with ETS V-band exhaust manifold...this turbo came with my motor...I am not a fan of big turbo...I am looking for something along the line of HKS 7460 as I had this turbo before and it was great on the street...the BB Green compares to this...let me know...

It seems we have similar tastes and build targets . I love the quick spool and more streetable turbo (IMO).

No hard feelings...just out of curiosity...doesn't the FP Green compare very well to the CBRD BBK BB...why not just stick with the Green? Is the spool better with the CBRD BBK BB? I am really considering picking up another HKS 7460...that thing really spools fast...on a 2.3 I made 510 hp and 508tq...instant power...lol

No, the green is much smaller.
3B is size of a red but with better spoil.
I made 550whp on CBRDs mustang dyno with more to go on my 2.3/ 3B on E85.
A green won't come anywhere near that.

It seems I have missed the boat according to CBRD website. I am excited to see what they come out with and hope to sell my green to pick up a replacement. Rolling on stock turbo now.

Curt Brown made over 600 HP on a BB Green on Buschur's Mustang dyno a couple years back. Read about it here:

Don't make rash claims without actually knowing what you are talking about...

OP: GLWS. It's a great turbo

I have seen this before and maybe you should take your own advice....
From your link "Thanks Nate for letting me use the Dynojet."
Also, on a DJ Winpep print out.
Am I missing something here?
The MD pulls he said netted 533/434.
I was just stating facts, a 3B is the size of a red not a green.

Great turbo and awesome results for CBRE. At 54 LBS/Min it is a bit smaller than the 3B, that is just a fact. Every turbo has it's own characteristics, and people look for what THEY need.

Not sure why you guys are thinking I wash bashing the FP Green.


Sorry for the jack OP....GLWS!
