99759, E III16g or Green?
Posted by Slo2g, Apr-17-07 05:23 AM
Since I am nearing the end of my build I was wondering if the Evo III 16g would be good for me if it was ported and clipped or if I should just get the FP Green and if the Green will fit without problems. What do you guys think?

Green... without a doubt. I've purchased quite a few FP turbos lately and they are top notch. The Green is a great street turbo.

I was also looking at the FP3065(I think thats it) and I REALLY like it, but I don't know if I want to get it because of fitment ?'s and downpipe/wastegate. How is the spool on the Green on a 2L? Damn just look at it...

I've run the green and the evoIII16g (ported). I've also run the red (7cm). Of the three, I love the 16g for a street turbo. I had full boost of 19psi before 3k. Held power nicely through the range. The green hit around 4.5k but it hit hard. Lots O' power up top. The red hit near 4.5k also (but that was 9.6 comp) but she broke loose all 4 tires (stockers)in 3rd gear not even at WOT. Lots more power.

Each turbo had different set-ups so they were also dependent on the set-up. My favorite, by far, was the 16g. Power enough to break 4 tires lose. Catch full spool pretty quickly. Really nice STREET turbo.

As for the "30" line, I haven't owned any yet but, I have dealt with them on friends set-ups and they are some pretty versatile turbos. But they too had a higher spool up than the 16g. BUT the guys pulled some pretty good power out of them. So if the little bit of extra spool time is fine with you, you should be comfortable with the 3065 (keeping in mind that the spool up is dependant on your set-up also).

IMO
