Keep in mind it's only 125 if you have gone through the drivers education and passed

blows the old green out of the water, the ballet is still out on the new hta73 green not enough info out there. if you are looking for something with max top end horsepower like a red, i would hold off a little bit chad is working on a larger version of the bbk as i speek.

Swapped out my FP Red for the BBK Full this week and its night and day difference. Hits 28psi 564rpm sooner, higher peak torque (Way sooner of course), and lost about 40whp peak up top, but two caveats to the losses.

1. Different dyno that reads about 7% lower so peak whp is about 6 lower based on that
2. This is a track setup so we tapered boost down from 30psi - 25psi whereas on the FP Red we only tapered to 28 at redline. We also used a stock DV as opposed to the Synapse BOV that I was using with the Fp Red.

Telling you what the spool difference is and feeling it are worlds apart. The car feels stock, drives like a stock IX, but with significant gains in torque and power

Also, I was tuned by same tuner on same dyno with my old FP Green and the BBK Full compared like this:

1. Spooled slightly sooner than the Green
2. Had greater power throught entire powerband
3. Greater peak torque and whp (Obviously per #2)
4. At 7k rpm the BBK had a 50whp advantage

This was on E85. On 91, it was even worse for the Green

So, while I canot do a pure comparison to the new HTA FP Green, I can do a pretty controlled comparison to the FP Red. I will be going to the Dyno used when I tuned the Red in the next few weeks so I can get the Winpep files for a purer comparison

Good luck on your decision and purchase

I would try to PM Chad again or call. I know they are very busy this week trying to finish a customer's car and their own for a time attack event this weekend along with some other stuff they needed to finish this week.

Just figured I'd give you a heads up to their situation if you were needing to get in touch with them. Plus I know Chad would want to speak with you directly about your car and your goals for it.

Just ordered the BBK Full Ported Version yesterday and I can't wait. Had a nice little talk with Chad and I have to say that it is good to speak to someone that not only has a great product, but they are willing to take time out of their day to talk to you about it and see where your car is currently at.

Agreed. No one knows my turbo is not stock.
