WILL THIS WORK FOR MY CAR? Evo 9 TME turbo on a evo 8......
I was just confirming that this combination will work on my evo 8.
The turbo is a evo 9 TME 20g upgrade with 10.5 hotside.
I will need an evo 8 conversion to evo 9 turbo install kit for this turbo to bolt onto my car, correct? (the turbo is listed as "fits: evo 9" if you check the link below)
Here are the items:

install kit:

P.S. :
I am looking for a turbo that is cost effective and streetable. I am looking for 400-500whp, with fast, low-rpm spool-up. Currently, I have a stock turbo with 272s, 10.5 hotside, etc etc.
WHAT OTHER TURBOS would you guys recommend for the horsepower range i am looking for and the spool up characteristics?
I was thinkin possibly the FP green? 3065(bigger)?, another 20g variation, or ?????
PLEASE ANY AND ALL RECOMMENDATIONS APPRECIATED!
Whether it is saying the combo i posted up above is a good turbo and price, perfect- if you have another option you feel is better, please let me know!

Isn't the FP-red a much larger turbo? and a LOT more expensive? I thought the red was more of a drag turbo, but i do not know much about it but from whta little i know it seems to be a very highoutput turbo with lots of potential....when is the spool up for it?

There is about 50 threads with this exact same question. Thats why nobody is answering you. The fact that you want between 400-500hp is quite a difference too since the stock turbo can make 400hp with bolt ons.

based off of multiple PM i got (seems like people would much rather PM me their opinion than post it in the thread) it seems that the package i found is quite costly for what you get - many people stated that.
After reading the PMs i feel that i will rule out this turbo and possibly look into a FP-red, or other comparable turbo. Where is the cheapest price for the FP-RED found? not turbochargers.com , obviously (im 99% sure!)
