Brother, I'm telling you that I'm banging my head over here trying to make the best decision. My daddy strings are kicking in and I'm not feeling too comfortable paying over $3K for a turbo kit. I have a few irons in the fire and I'll see how they come out. For the $3K I'm looking at having to spend, if I went the BBK Full route, I could get the FMIC, UICP, LICP, and injectors all at the same time not to mention have some coin left over for the Aquamist kit. Now FP has just come out with Version 2 of the Red so now I have to look at that one too. Great. More headaches...!

Directly off the Forced Performance website: NEW to the FP RED™ for the Evolution IX Line up is our own custom 80mm Flow Advancement Port™ compressor cover. You can now choose the new FP 80mm Flow Advancement Port™cover or stick with the standard 63mm Stock Appearing compressor cover. The larger inlet configuration helps reduce huffing and surging sounds that are often reported with these larger stock format hybrids when lugging the engine at low RPM and high boost pressure but perhaps even more useful is the way it helps feed the splitter blades of the compressor wheel resulting in increased flow. This larger inlet also increases the volume of the intake air pipe and reduces vacuum at the inlet of the turbo. Additionally the volute of the cover is now exactly tailored to the HTA wheel aero for the best performance possible. The 80mm inlet Flow Advancement Port™ version can be used with our Intake Air Pipe. The intake is undercover black and designed to replace the stock intake air pipe perfectly allowing the use of the recirculated BOV and the valve cover crankcase vent as in the OEM application. The 80mm Flow Advancement Port™ cover can also be used with standard 3" air intake pipes by utilizing a straight 3" coupler.

Dover, huh? Well it's about time you left. Enjoy your time what you have left. Tell the ladies that I said hello as they may be our only source of morale improvement for a while.

It's all good brother and I'll still be in Buehring when you get to Taji (received a FRAGO today). We should start pushing there around mid-month (OPSEC sensitive). Did you by chance pick up a postcard from Spain? I'd love to see how that place looks. My brother is leaving for a cruise there next month as he is stationed at EUCOM (lucky guy, I guess). I feel you about the cry babies but the S6 papa bear will meet you guys on the ground. You know things change when he's around. He's been on the grind since we got here and your guys are all doing great things. A certain female SGT you have mentioned wanting to put in here WO packet. By the way, I found a guy selling "x" turbo for an awesome price. I'm trying to work on a plan with him right now as I don't need the kit laying around my garage with Wendy about to move next month. More to follow...
