The bad boy alot of people seem to be wanting is the FI91X and FI94X for drag radial cars. The ones that are out there already are making some STUPID power and fast passes. You'll see some of the big boys here even on LS1tech uses them soon as some of them have gotten theirs as well.

Here is a comparison picture of the units since you already have one of our S91's, this will give you some gauge of the difference. We tried our best to keep them as small as possible since alot of people just don't want thumper size units any more since they can't fit them in the engine bays and don't want to cut the car.

Also, am I correct in saying that the FI-98X will fit in any space that the S91 will fit in?

if the S91 was a tight fit, the FI_98X won't fit. Just look at the size difference in the pic DrTurbo posted...

There's no pic of the 98X...I thought the 98X was a compact frame comparable to the S91.

And the S91 is not a tight fit all actually.

Compare the S91 to a GT55-91 or a T91 and its tiny in comparison. The 98X is a good bit smaller compared to a PT98, T98 or Garrett 98.

Also the FI-9155 in the picture above is also a BAD mama jama as well. Larger turbine then a S91 and just a touch under the FI-91X turbine.
