Very well said. The majority of the public does not realize what it takes to achieve amazing results with these stock frame turbo's. There is quite a bit of extra cost along with sacrifices of vehicle comfort that record holders have made to reach their end results. It's not as simple as just "the right combination of parts" as it goes quite a ways beyond that as well.
I have reached a 10.8 with my bone stock Evo 9 turbo, and a 10.301 with my FP Red while still retaining all my creature comforts of a daily driver. It would be nice to claim 9's on a stock frame turbo, but I am not willing to make all the sacrifices that go along with that. I'm pleased with the accomplishments I have made on these small turbo's and have no regrets with moving on from them at this point.

Well, I definitely felt the extra "lag" of the black but I also saw on the dyno and felt the extra top end power from it as well. It's like everything else, a trade off. The Red felt more responsive to me below 3,800rpms which ='s more fun on the street to me.

I feel the same way the red on my car was violent use to spin 2nd when I floored it with three people in the car and no light weights either..That turbo was nasty but crappy top end I would die to early after the top of 3rd it was a pig to me...Your gonna love the t3 setup your eyebrows are gonna peel of your face when the turbo hits.
