Hello Brett. I bought an Old FP Red (internally Gated) with a 8cm Housing 3 years ago. This Turbo is rated at 65lbs/min. This is probably the best Turbo I ever bought. It has a little Lag but I use ECMLink to control Boost; the thing push Air pretty good. I see 20 psi by 5000rpm and 62lbs/min and 32psi by 7500rpm. Go FP or go home!!! Ghislain
Rouge!!!

Ghislain, I rememered you had DSM link I'm sure I'll ask for tuning advice when I get ecmlink for this. I need to more torque down low to get the boat out of the hole...and want to try and keep the RPM down as much as possible...

I know you got your answer, and made your mind up, but I'll add my 2 cents for whoever comes across this. I had a Green on a stock 6 bolt and it was a great street turbo for a daily driven, commuter AWD DSM. It kept out of unnecessary boost just cruising around, but on meth and 25+ PSI it hit pretty good and nothing ever got in my way short of a couple full on drag cars at the track. I also had a small turbo DSM (14B lol) and that was a completely different animal. Ready to go at any point in the RPM range, a lot of low-end pickup around anything past 2k rpm, but ran out of steam hard up top. It was a great turbo for around the city. The turbo you decided on should be a good happy medium between a 14B and a Green get the best of both worlds. I have yet to ride in a properly setup E316G car, I would imagine it's a blast for a street car.

I am definitely not at the level I would call properly setup but it's definitely a blast, and I am sure I can get it to that level for next summer!!

6BT is way to heavy for a shallow water boat...when you hit bottom, that extra 500lb will rip the bottom open..some guys are using VW 1.8t
