    Anyone running Forced Performance DSM Green's or Red's?

    I spoke with Marco today and know they're an exact fit replacement for EVO III 16G's. They will bolt directly onto a DR, IPS, 3sx, or Titan TD-05 manifold and exhaust setup. What I don't know is are there any issues with mounting? Will the covers and internal gates work or will there be fittment issues?

    Trying to weight the differences between MTC stage 3 and the FP Green and Red and am hoping someone has mounted them. Would be awesome if someone had input.

    Yes, I want moar!

    Thanks ahead of time.

    If you're worried about fitment just spend another $50 on a 68HTA. I can't imagine you'll miss the extra 10 lb/min with TWO of them, especially with the 68HTA spooling sooner than the FP Red.

    Exhaust side should be simple. Have you you asked FP or a dsm'er for measurements on the compressor cover? Every setup is a little different, but I can probably fit a slightly larger cover with my stock fans and mishi radiator, but I don't have to worry about internal gates since I am external. How much power are you looking for and on what size engine? MTC stage 3 or 4 is no brainer for fitment since they both use same comp wheel in stock 16g comp cover.

    I want the surge cover... it's not depicted but it's part of the FP upgrade. My driving style is pretty aggressive and I'm in boost transition constantly from shifting gears and mid-range sneaks up on me. Worth it more to me for the cover vs the HTA, which is essentially what I'm running now. MTC doesn't have an antisurge cover upgrade. I need it with a compressor that size unless I want to downshift to 2nd gear at 60mph to pass...
