Anyone want a FP 18g turbo?
Here's the story: I was put on a waiting list by Forced Performance for one of their 18g turbos (TD05 hot side, 18g compressor) MANY months ago. I decided to take an alternate path, so I won't be needing this turbo anymore. The thing is, the waiting list for this turbo is huge, they should be getting a few in this month, and I am towards the top of that waiting list. SO, if anyone wants my space on the list...
I'm not too sure if this turbo is even going to be out this month, but if it does it would be a shame to let all those months of waiting go to waste. I think FP is going to sell these for about $800. Let me know if anyone wants it.

If you plan on running race gas this is a DOPE turbo!

18G's also take a bit more boost to really start flowing. I've heard it said that at 18psi a VF30/34 and an 18G are flowing roughly the same (and the 34 spools up as fast, if not faster).
It takes race gas and a boost to 20-24psi to really make things start to happen. It's at that point where the 18G walks away from the VF30/34.

i like what is2scooby said in comparing the 30/34 with the 18g...how many others agree with his opinion...i dont disagree with the fact the green monster would walk away at 20-24psi...but id like to hear anybodys opinion on this matter
