a hair under 8 weeks for me, through a vendor going straight to FP. You can luck out through a vendor sometimes that has them in stock (I know I've seen Al come up with them every once in awhile).

While worth the wait (kicks like a mule, for sure) I have some other bottleneck in my system that keeps me at 27psi on pump + meth so only 430whp.

I waited four weeks for mine. I had ordered it the second week of May and got it the second week of June.

Got the red

My next question now that I got the turbo is, well I'm gonna install it this weekend end and was wondering can I drive it with the new turbo on like it is or do I need to tune it right away? I've had the car tuned before but not with this turbo

You can drive it around. Just stay out of boost to be safe until you get her tuned.

+1 on staying out of boost until tuned. Good to hear you got it and hopefully fp is turning them around quicker now.

about 3 months. get it from a vendor and you'll only have to wait about a week. contact them before pulling the trigger to confirm they have it actually in stock. I know extremepsi has them in stock by the dozens.
