i bought a FP green turbo before xmas and turned up two weeks ago, long delay as they cant make enough of them.... ive only just had my engine rebuilt so until its been run in and mapped cant comment on it other than from all the research ive done, they are a good buy in the states and a fair few of them are running them with no problems....... ment to be good for 450bhp with the 3" intake, time will tell.....

They seem to produce good power once they are up the revs but the one I mapped last week on an Sti5 was laggier than a typical 321T on a 2.0

I have one on mine - will let you know how it performs once the mapping finishes (next week).

Looks a great piece of kit and great value.

They will kick in earlier on a 2.5 with AVCS for sure

Dont you just love 2.5's and AVCS ?

I am hoping that when it comes time to do the cylinder heads on mine, that someone will have figured a way to adapt the dual AVCS (if not done already) - exhaust cam timing would be a great mapping tool
