i love FP their turbos are amazing! i would love a red thats what i am eventually aiming for but theyre still pretty expensive liek 1700 bucks... FP just came out with a black which is a 35r wheel (1mm smaller actually) inside a stock turbo housing... im on e85 right now with my evo so im at 410 awhp so a red would push me over the safe stock block limit so gotta wait till i can afford to build the motor first
