Where did you pick up the FP turbo from? Got any more info on it?
I plan on using a GTX2867R turbo which I imagine if yours is billet comp wheeled then should be very similar.

Im a dealer for INA enginnering dude so i can get pratically anything....

the GTX series dont seem all that great compared to the FP tyrbos or Even the Next Gen EFR turbos like the 6758 and so on....

I chose FP due to its spool like 2860rs and its Gt3071R power on a 48lb/min wheel....

Im running 630cc Deka Injectors & Rs4 Maf for fueling plus along side revo stage 3...Plus i have a 4bar fpr to hand if i get caught short which i shouldnt but its handy to have

Thats exactly why im hoping to go for a billet wheeled GT28 size turbo. I really dont understand all these people that run a 62lb turbo and are only aiming for 500bhp. Why not run a smaller turbo and make the car so much more drivable.

I would like 400bhp out of my LET on highish boost from a GTX28 or like what you have a FP GT28HTA. Will do the power I want and more yet should drive really really well.
Could you possibly u2u me a price on the FP28HTA please?

Yeah the Billet wheel turbo do seem next gen stuff but each billet wheel between pp,Garrett,FP and EFR are all different but all within the same LB/min of each of but 2-3lb is power and the EFR is the hightest Rated one on a 68mm wheel... around 49lb/min..

Ive u2u'd you the price mate on a FP turbo :d

I got your u2u. Could just do with a link to its compressor map. Been reading on the MLR about the FP HTA range vs Garrett GTX and the HTA does generally seem to be the better of the two. The EFR's seem to be a bit fragile from what iv read also.
Just noticed where your located. Would love to have a ride in your car once its done to see how well it drives.

Had a few Hours today after Decorating the Landing & halls so desided to spend it on the car considering it was my last day off...lol...

I was concerned about the downpipe for some reason but i wasnt sure what,something in side of me wanted to re-fit it in the day light to see how it is...

Anyway upon on fitting it i noticed the Bolt hanger Which is on the Sub frame was outta line so once i sorted that and remark up for a new hanger it took 20mins to have the downpipe on and fitted lol PERFECT!!!...V-band is the way forward..

Im going up to Chris's on tuesday night to finish off welding the downpipe and Fit the EGT bung...Then i can heat wrap it :d

I was also wondering weather my LCR charge Pipe would fit with abit of grinding :d...So marked it all up and chopped the OE Baffle off and with a 4'' 63mm Alloy Joiner I had It lined up nicely...I might even chop the Boost Port of the baffle and weld it to my Charge..

This is how it stands :d Once the downpipe and charge is done its a few jubliee Clips & t-bolt Clamps Then i can start her up....(check it all over first)...
I will paint anything and smarten any bits up once its run in..but that doesnt concern me right now..

The Last thing i have to connect is just the coolant and oil lines to the turbo...But apart from that,thats it :d So if im lucky i can have her running the week over christmas....:rofl:
