Seems like most people only run BB on evos though. I guess it's sensible to run BB considering most evos with big power run 35-40+ psi.
The reason the 5857 is super cheap is because precision ditched it. The 5557 and 5857 were replaced with the 5558 and 5858. They stopped outsourcing the 57 turbine wheel and are now using their own 58 wheel, which kept the cost of a 5858cea relatively low compared to say a stock frame BB turbo

Stock from turbo prices are getting out of hand. The BB option really isn't that much better for the price. It's way better to go with a t3 or t4 twin scroll setup because of the reliability and ability to change out turbo to meet your power goals.

It seems like fp blacks and reds are very unreliable and fail all the time from my experience. I mean they expect you to run crazy expensive oil and they still fail. Just my .02

Are you arguing with yourself? The entire point of my statement above is that you suggested a turbo that isn't made anymore and has been removed from the world of PTE for 6-12 months now.?. There was never a question as to whether I recommend a t3/4 setup over a stock frame but you make pretty ridiculous statements.. I mean seriously to say that fp turbos "fail all of the time from my experience" is hilarious... I bet you have installed 100s of these (feel free to insert cute roll eyes guy here) bottom line, support what you say or your word means nothing. This isn't a mustang forum bro, and honestly other than your monster stock looking mustang we don't know anything about you... Feel free to make a recommendation like tskitski asked for but damn you are obviously far from qualified to talk about you experience with failing turbos like you are Michael from ets, chad from CBRD, or any other PROVEN evo specialist.

And tskitski if you wanted to go with a 33 or similar check with chad.. CBRD makes a super nice setup inside of your budget

PTA shouldn't be that bad. You have an obligation to come home. We don't have an acting Token assignes. A change of command for EVOJR wasn't completed.
