bbk and fp turbos

Is it true that the bbk full spool like the fp green but makes power like the fp red? and the bbk b/bbk xl spools like a fp red but makes power like the fp black. i dont know, that is why i am asking the question. thank you for looking and hopefully you can help me out.

I would say the BBK full is between the green and red.

BBK-B is between the red and black.

But then again, I really don't know but that's what I read here on EvoM.

I think you should just ask Chad. He won't try to BS you, either.

OP you should have noticed the words "...graph required..." in the title of the sticky thread at the head of this sub-forum. The mods will soon move this over to Evo Engine, Turbo, and Drivetrain.

BBK Full starts spooling at slightly lower rpm and has slightly less power capacity than a journal bearing hta green.

I did a lot of research on stock framed turbos before going with the BBK.
In terms of flow capacity/ HP the Full is slightly behind the HTA green. It just spools and responds quicker. The BBK-B is right above the HTA Green, and right below the Red in terms of HP / Flow.

Consider yourself lucky to be in the market for a stock frame turbo for the Evo with companies like FP & CBRD your not going to go wrong with either

if i can answer any specific questions let me know-

we also have BB coming to the market- but we are working on some other developments along with it-

the bbk full is a tried and proven "small" upgrade- that people have great results with-

obviously the bigger the turbo the slower the spool- but more power output!

it depends on your needs-
