Got a call from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries today.
The fk8 turbo upgrade has been tested by them and they are waiting on some small parts and tooling to run a batch. They expect 30 percent capacity January 2021. No exact date but I asked if he minded if I told the public. Originally they had planned for fall/winter 2020 but production of particular parts slowed it down. Specs will be released at release date. Expect about 30 percent increase over stock in flow. Similar to SI gains percentage wise.
As expected itâs a drop completely turbo dimensions and comes with a brand new actuator already calibrated. Expect a increase compared to si turbo but I wouldnât expect much higher price.
Wish I had exact details but like si turbo only at release. As far as someone getting this turbo ahead of time donât count on it. No prototypes are to be given to public. Yes there is a post of someone saying they have the prototype. I have seen no actual turbo. Only a box. Can not confirm or deny its existence.
Believe I tried. I asked to receive an email when release date is tbd.
Thatâs all thanks for reading.
