| NEW to the FP RED™ for the Evolution IX Line up is our own custom 80mm Flow Advancement Port™ compressor cover. You can now choose the new FP 80mm Flow Advancement Port™cover
or stick with the standard 63mm Stock Appearing compressor cover as
shown above. The larger inlet configuration helps reduce huffing and
surging sounds that are often reported with these larger stock format
hybrids when lugging the engine at low RPM and high boost pressure but
perhaps even more useful is the way it helps feed the splitter blades
of the compressor wheel resulting in increased flow. This larger inlet
also increases the volume of the intake air pipe and reduces vacuum at
the inlet of the turbo. Additionally the volute of the cover is now
exactly tailored to the HTA wheel aero for the best performance
possible.
The 80mm inlet Flow Advancement Port™
version can be used with our Intake Air Pipe which is located in the
Related Products section at the bottom of the page. The intake is
undercover black and designed to replace the stock intake air pipe
perfectly allowing the use of the recirculated BOV and the valve cover
crankcase vent as in the OEM application. The 80mm Flow Advancement Port™
cover can also be used with standard 3" air intake pipes by utilizing a
straight 3" coupler also located in the Related Products section at the
bottom of this page. The FP Red turbocharger for the EVOIX
is the only stock format turbo capable of delivering 550+whp with some
examples recording over 600whp. Typical installations of this turbo
result in mid to upper 400's on pump gas and mid to upper 500's on race
gas depending on ambient temperature and related mods to the car in
question. Typical boost threshold is about 3700RPM with some cars
spooling up slower or faster depending on camshaft selection and other
variables. The turbocharger should be operated at 22-24psi on pump gas
and about 30-35psi spike dropping to 25-27psi by redline in race gas
applications.
Using the turbocharger for higher boost race gas applications requires
the use of the full flow oil feed line to supply adequate oil to the
thrust bearing of the turbocharger. As of June 1, 2009 we will no
longer offer free repair service to Reds run at high boost with the
factory oil feed line. See the related link at the bottom of the page
for the recommended oil supply solution for high boost (25psi or more)
applications.
