The fuel leak has been fixed she has a new set of deno 720's and a 720 vpc chip along with a new set of lower isolator orings. The car is listed on auto trader for 14K but most offers so far are between 13K and 10K.

Don't worry guys, AMS is almost done installing my FP3052. They were delayed one day because Forced Performance sent the turbo with the wrong wastegate flange. The car should be on the street by the weekend. I'd dyno it for you guys but I kind of ran a little short on $ for the 680cc injectors so I'm gonna run it at 17psi for about a month. I'll let you guys know how it feels at lower boost and the differrence between 93 octane and 100 octane pump gas.

Look right above the "bolt on" part.

Wow, the #'s are hard to find. I've found 469whp/419tq for the old FP3055.

I bought the 3052 on the premise that it *should* offer similar pump gas numbers spool quicker and make more HP on race gas.Before the legion of my buddies cousin made 500whp and went 10's on the green. I am aware of the greens list of accomplishments.

I felt the 3052 would allow me to accomplish my goals with much less effort then with a green or full Garrett 50 trim setup.Im looking for 400+whp on pump and mid 11's@122-123 on race gas.

Now I just have to do it. That is if the car does not sell first.The turbo is still doing its job flawlessly.No complaints no issues of any kind. Still rocking 25 psi on pump and roasting the rubber in the first couple gears.


Happy Boosting.

Who else went 10's on a Green besides Curt Brown? Damnit, I was supposed to be the 2nd person!!!!! Oh well.

Is the return oil line mounting the same as a Mitsubishi return line? Can I use an SS return line that I have for my MHI turbo on the FP30 BB CHRA?

 

[RED&BlackGSX]

your mailbox is full..PM me..

 

[dsm1kenobe]

[coltboostin]

I've gone 10's on pump.

Nike Air "pumps" :laugh:

whoa those are my numbers....by the way the FP turbos are excelent in fitment, quality, and most importantly customer support!

I will have new numbers from the FP3065 here soon.

What you guys need to know is that the dsmer's using these turbos and making big power rarely post on a board. If any its a local one. There's hundreds of guys out there that have dynoed those snails but find a site like this no use for them.

Sorry to bring this thread back but I have some questions about this turbo ...

First ... it says 90 degree elbow and it gives you a choice of drivers side or passenger side ... what's that all about?

Next ... I would need a pipe to go where my stock O2 housing was to go from the turbo to the downpipe ... where would I get one that's a direct bolt on?

Next ... This turbo will use stock 1g water lines? I had a 16g on my car before would I need new oil lines? It HAS to be fed from the head correct? Where do you feed it from exactly? ( I have a 1g head on a 2g block )

Does anyone have any pics of it on the outlet side? I can't find any and I'd just like to get a better idea of what it looks like. Thanks.

You are serious.
Do you know what a 90 degree elbow is?
The elbow is welded on to make connecting to your intercooler piping easier. Some people connect toward the passengers side.. others toward the driver's side.

The stock water lines can be used... partly. There will be some jury rigging or cutting/bending required. Check the pictures at this link:

FP can supply you with oil lines.

I cannot praise their outstanding customer service enough. They treated me like a King. I love this turbo.

ok duhhh ... I never knew the elbow was for the intercooler piping . Makes sense now. Ok, what about the pipe that will go where the stock O2 housing was? Where can I find that? I emailed them friday I believe it was .. but no response yet.
