That's the nice thing about the green/red and bbk is they are all stock frame turbos. You can't tell a thing by looking at them. If you look really close, you can see the metal badge FP puts on their turbos, but that's about it. sleeeeeppppeeerrrr

I saw this some time ago....good stuff.

What makes me laugh is the comments. People get so ****ty with each other about these things. I like to sit back and laugh.

Well the VR4 is down...AGAIN somehow blew the rear turbo with only 6,000 miles on it. So she will be down for another week to two for the turbo rebuild. This damn car is so aggravating if I didn't have so much money in it I would sell it ahhhhhhhhh. End rant.

You have got to be kidding me. I thought I had **** luck. Twin BBK's should be in your future.

Still trying to get these injectors straightened out. She sounds great, and part throttle feels good. I will let you know when I am able to stomp on it. Plus, I am not running meth until the pump map is finished. Can't wait to fire that thing up

Legitimately the car gods must really hate me or something. No I am DONE upgrading the VR4 I might put the nitrous kit on but that's it. I'm looking at other platforms, possibly another Evo maybe STI or RX7. Not sure but I need something else that's more reliable.

If you want something more realible don't go with a rx7.Too many problems.

Yeah thats the way to do it but those rotary engines are a beast if u fix it up right, but not that many rotary mechanics (atleast good ones).I love those cars I had one in japan.

Supra's are reliable and I'm sure you're well aware of their capabilities.

Yea I know the guy who owns it, he had all the work done at the shop I take my car too. He also has a nice single turbo VR4 that's about to be for sale. And possibly a viper. I think I am just going to get a RX7 once I EAS.
