I should note that unlike the green and red turbos, which Forced Performance does some excellent custom work on, the BB 50 trims and GT30Rs come fully assembled from Garrett. If they sold them with a mitsu exhaust housing made by PTE or Bullseye or whatever, they'd be 100% identical to the other turbos that are already sold by a million other vendors.

You certainly *could* buy an FP3052 and put a PTE housing on it, but why wouldn't you just buy a Garrett GT30xxR that comes with the PTE housing from another vendor? It's the exact same turbocharger, down to the compressor housing and everything. FP's magic is all in the turbine housing.
