10-4 THEN.

just hope everyone remembers to get the oil line (it has the restrictor already built - in)

i was hoping to replace my long SS line (from FP) with a shortened version, but havent made any headway on that idea yet...

is the FP Red ~ sz55?

Robert - can you explain how these turbos have been "ported"? The internal wastegate?

the red uses a 65lb wheel

edit-thanks forgedsti for correcting my terminology...

You don't have to purchase the ss line.. we used the 20G with the factory line (both your DB20g and the new FP20g). (Although the SS line is a good choice)

As stated the red is a 65lb wheel instead of a 55lb wheel on the sZ55, but the 3" inlet is really what helps set it apart.

robert, the "porting INCLUDED!!!" you're advertising with your FP Reds is the same Turbine Housing Porting service FP offers for an additional $95? Is that correct? From the image esemes posted earlier, my guess is yes but just want to be sure. thanks.

The porting service is the service shown by ESEMES on the exhaust side of the housing. It comes like that on the Green and Red standard, but is a $45 add-on fee for those who are purchasing the 20G. Hope this helps

I also appologize about the delayed reply, it was 2 days before christmas eve and as you can imagine things were pretty hectic getting people their products to them on time especially all the last minute shoppers

thanks for the reply, robert. If you look at the FP website, they make it seem like porting is an additional $95 on top of the $1375 for the turbo but it turns out that it's included, as you say. thanks for clearing that up for me. Are all your reds spoken for? I'm still considering it but the tgv delete requirement is the only sticking point for me. I'm slowly warming up to the idea of the deletes but it's taking some time.

We're going to offer either a delete or a delete service soon. So if you want some ported tumblers for a good price, I am sure we can make it happen without having to spend a lot of money. I will let you know as soon as possible. None of these turbos have dibs placed on them. This is a stocking order so if anyone needs it quick we can get it to them as fast as possible (and have every flavor available for install as well). If you need a red, let me know. I know we may take one as well so there will be 2 available.

Forced Performance's website may be a little behind as pricing/options/etc seem to be changing rapidly, especially with new options like porting, 3" inlets, etc are all becoming available.

If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask and sorry again about the delay thank you!

Robert~

yea, long time bro. Too much nasioc-immaturity over here as of late. Only post when necessary. With a snail upgrade on the horizon, i've got a reason to lurk/post. Plus, grad school/work has mee swamped.

Happy Holidays everyone

Robert do you carry anything between a 20g and a vf39?
I am currently running a vf34 on my legacy. Any 18g's?
