Default Forced Peformance Turbo

So I realize there have been several threads started on this turbo and it has received mixed reviews for the full price. HOWEVER (and since i cant post in a group buy yet) they said they would offer them at $700 for a friend and myself for their Holiday Sale...possibly less if more people got on board. Would anyone be interested for that price or a possibly $50-$100 lower price?

The only member on here who has tested this turbo openly states that it didn't perform all that great and it eventually failed.

I would just save up the $700 towards something better.

forced performance isnt a specific turbo. Your statement is like saying, i can get the Garrett turbo for $xxxx.xx Which FP turbo are you referring to? And do you even understand all thats involved with running a larger turbo?

I figured people would know what i was talking about since its the only turbo they make specific for a speed. I do know what is involved, i'm fully bolted so this and a bcs would be my next mod(s)

It sounds like its just a rip off and I read about BNR possibly coming out with an s4 so i'm intrigued now -_-

Even a BNR S3 will be much better than this option.

I prototyped the turbo. It should have stayed in that phase and never have been produced...Waste of money (luckily I didn't pay the price it's listed for....) It shit the bed after about 50k miles as well. Started smoking up a storm.

If you are looking for an upgrade get the BNR. My BNR made over 80HP more than the HTA65 on the same dyno even when it was much warmer out.. Just food for thought.

Billet wheels aren't as effective on small turbos.
