FP Green anyone?
How many of you guys are running the "green setup"? i was originally going to go with the vf34 setup but then realized... if im spending all this money on my wrx, might as well go all out. i know the green is a bigger turbo but ive read it spools pretty fast. i am into autocross and want a turbo to accomodate for that. any input and advise would help greatly.
and yes, ive already tried the search button... lots of unwanted info. thanks,
jaime

I heard only good things about FP Greens. They are not bad with lag and make very good power. Plus, it is a bolt on and is resonably inexpensive comparing to other "large" turbo options.

since the green bolts up to WRX...would it bolt up to a subachad uppipe(and hopefully downpipe)? ( www.uniquemotorsports.com )

Sorry if this is off-topic regarding your question, but you may know the answer. I'm confuse with FP Green... is this the manufacturer's name? I've been trying to do some research on this Green turbo, but no luck so far. Know of any place that sells this turbo? Thanks!

forced performance "green" link: http://www.forcedperformance.net/
im still debating on which one to get. the green is going to set me off quite a bit, so i might just go with the vf34. but i dont want to regret my decision because i wont have money to do things twice.... sigh.

yea green definately is a good choice for all out power. buh i just wanna know if our stock 5 spd tranny will be able to handle the power. cause i know even with stock turbos, the wrx tranny has problems at launchs and what not. I've worked at a subaru for the past 3 months and you wouldn't believe how many blowen trannies the service department get ... 1st and 3rd's the most common for some reason ? lol ne ways any help on the tranny problem would be appreciated .. thx !
