fp big 28 vs pte 50trim

i had the same decision to make, and i went with the fp t28. why? because its one of my first mods, and i have a long way to go before i could really appreciate the power that either turbo can put out. i want to max the car out on the t28 and then upgrade to a bigger turbo once i know the car inside and out. if you are at the stage in the game where you still need to ask people which is better you are probably going to be disappointed with either, because the turbo is only going to be as good as the engine that its blowing into and the peices that are allowing it to do so. turbo cars are all about efficiency, both of the mechanical parts and the tuning sense of the owner. you will have a lot of fun with the t28, and when you are in the 12s on it, slapping on a 50 trim will be a world of difference, and you will be better able to make use of it. my theory and plan anyway.
 
11.8 is quick on a fwd car, but look at his car. It is a tin can and has the power to weight ratio to do it. Don't compare a car like that to most of our full weight cars, it does not give an accurate comparrison. Put my setup in his car and it will run 10's no doubt.

If this guy can get into the 12's with the Big28 in his FWD car, I'll give him my 50 trim because at that point he would deserve it more then I do.


forgot he was fwd, i was off im my own little happy place.. heh.. regardless- i plan on getting a 12 in my almost full weight bt28 auto gsx on pump gas. i am convinced that the reason not many people have hit 12s on the thing is because there arent very many people running them relative to the number of people running a 16g, and most of the people that are running them dont have full support, and upgrade the turbo before taking it to its limits. i am not going to upgrade my turbo until i make it, that way everyone will shut up about the damn thing :p

its small, leave it alone :D
