This thing makes a lot of power on a lot less boost....

This is the new billet 72mm compressor wheel & race cover w/integral velocity stack and 87mm Inconel turbine wheel. They are available.

FMW = Forged Milled Wheel = Billet. It's also available with a cast wheel which is what Everly has, the wheels are identical otherwise.

Thanks for clearing that up guys. I'm curious to see how it stacks up against the precision 72mm.

That's interesting to see a recirculated waste gate dump. It seems like most people stay away from it these days. I prefer it myself though

Simply amazing work. I love checking this thread for updates.

If you don't mind what are the specs on that radiator? Is it just a FMIC Core? I've wanted to do one like that but haven't found much info on it.

Thanks

It's setup the same way on the Outlaw car as well.

Thanks - it's not a FP unit, it's the new billet 72mm Borg Warner turbo.
