Ordered my FP GREEN!!! Found a place that had them in stock (www.extremepsi.com) and went ahead and ordered it!!! I'm so freaking excited!!! Its been my dream ever since my 240 to put a large turbo on my car as an upgrade and now I have!!!... Err... Will be! I'll be picking some parts up from Ryan when I'm in town and ordering the rest of my stuff when I get back from GA :D.

Yup! I'm assuming they are still in stock. Their site said "Ships in 24 hours" and I emailed them Thursday and they had them, so yea! :D I probably won't be making as much power as you Ryan, but if I can get 380 on a DynoDynamics with meth and 360 w/o I'll be happy :D

Those numbers are definitely obtainable, you have to do everything else to support it though. the mani, o2, and injectors will help, but you need cams, cam gears, ic + ic piping, ported tb, ported intake mani, etc.

I'm doing GSC S1 cams, ETS 3.5in IC and piping, and ARP headstuds and all the stuff I'm buying from you. I think thats all I'm doing for now. I didnt know you had ported intake mani, and TB.

I'm not doing a dyno tune due to the fact that I'd have to go to SpeedElement and our local road tuner guy has corrected too many of their tunes for me to go there. I've seen the before and after logs and tunes from SpeedElement and than the local guy. SpeedElement seems to be slipping a little bit. Either that or the altitude really throws it off like it did to me and Andrews tune. So thats gonna be the better bet for me. Either way I should see at least a 60-70hp gain before meth and a 100hp after meth and I think I'll be happy with that :D

Ya, that sounds about right. Your really going to notice a difference in midrange power. Peak power may not be incredible, well it will be a big jump from what it is not either way, but in addition to that your midrange will be off the pages compared to what it was before.

P.S. Theres alot of stuff people dont know about my car that I just dont say :D

Bastard!!! lol I'll look into getting the intake mani ported along with the TB.

Its not cheap :( I believe the 65mm TB is $300 alone.

Its only because you have to buy the whole TB unit. PPI does it for 75 bucks, but you have to send yours in. I just cant afford that down time. I may just pick up a cheap used TB from EvoM and send it in.

That's the main thing, Tripp. The mid range is where you'll spend the most time while driving. All of the power that you will be making will be very useable. Ryan's new motor, on the other hand, will have ridiculous power all over the powerband now.

Let me know how much you want. Your getting a new intake mani and TB anyways right? :D I may not be able to buy right away because I don't think I'm getting as much money at first as I thought. I may actually not be able to have everything installed until October... You know how hard thats gonna be to have all those parts sitting in my house and not be able to touch them? lol

Im getting a AMS VSR Intake mani and 75mm TB. I actually traded my old ported mani and tb to a guy for his + cash :( so now all I have is a stocker mani and tb. I dont really know how much they are worth.

Bastard!!! jk I'll check around for prices. Like I said I may have to hold off on that and just have you ship the intake mani and TB to me later.

Well I'm sorta pissed... I ordered my FP Green though ExtremePSI (advertised on EvoM) and they won't ship it to me here in NV. They're reasoning is because my Mom ordered it (taking out of inhertance) and because of the price of the item they have to ship it to the billing address. It'll be there Friday though, so I get to stroke it and rub it and take gay JDM posses with it at the meet, but I'm probably gonna have to pay for UPS shipping to ship it to me in Reno... I'm afraid if I take it on the plane they'll think its a bomb lol.

Other than that ExtremePSI is a great shop with AMAZING PRICES!!! They have the ETS 3.5IC for cheaper than what ETS sells it for on their site. They also have free ground shipping, so you only have to pay for handling (7.50) on all orders.

Long story short... Don't let your Mom order you a turbo and have them try to ship it to your address :P

Well thats a security measure they take to make sure there are no theft problems, etc. Its your own fault, lol. At least you get the turbo now and dont have to wait 6-8 weeks.

do you have a walbro fuel pump in your car or no? if not your going to need one.

I agree. A fuel pump is a must at your projected power.

Yes i do! Well its not on the car, but I bought one. Its sitting here in the apt. I just see no point in installing it and having to get tuned for it when I'm just going to do everything at once. I actually picked it up used for 60 bucks shipped, so I save some money there.

Thanks man! I'm just worried about the BOV. I think the forge RS from Ed will work fine though. If not I can get an APS from the same guy I bought the Walbro from for cheap.
