link for people with no google skillz

mustangs still read higher than DD by a bit, but the results are comparable as far as ramp and peak power go (within a few %).

Good find.

I find it interesting that they are already making application specific housings before they even have a full roll out of the std housing options though...

It would be nice to see this option with a T4 TS IW housing on it.

Originally it was a consideration for my own project, right till I found they cancelled the plan for T4 TS IW housings on the smaller turbines.

Even if it were to make 450whp on 98 the response is excellent, we would all be out ordering gateless 6boob jobs me thinks.

There is some parallel dev I suspect, Cosworth were working on them before ANY options were available. And cheers for posting the link, I had been having issues with my browser and ended up with a "CBF, do it later" moment. I figured I'd said enough to give the proactive googlers something to hunt for :)

he is probably waiting till he gets some good results before posting anything :P

Geoff currently doesn't have a turbo on his R14. His car has been sitting in his shop since the Modified event last year.

The Blue R34 in Borg Warner's booth had an 8374 twin scroll in it. The results haven't been posted yet because the owner of that car has not put in on a dyno yet. There is also an RB26 that has the twin configuration on it with the EFR 6258's. Not sure if there are numbers on it yet either, but the biggest concern for most is that they DO NOT SHUFFLE. I've had a few twin turbo set ups on the RB26 and anything that could produce over 550whp seemed to "shuffle" (surge)... so that was good news.

well I have ordered a 9180 EFR TS housing (twin ex gate) back in november 2010. still waiting but it should be coming soon. I will do my nut if bumhoe gets his first though! we ordered and paid last year!!!

pretty keen to see it go. hopefully it'll be the first in aus. :)

Ordered my 9180 mid november too. Cant wait to get the damn thing. Where did you order it through?

Well i rang GCG turbos today and some guy told me they are still 4-6weeks away to arriving due to problems in US.

this is really fustrating cause i cant do anything until i get this turbo.

2weeks ago i was told it should arrive within 4 weeks. :/

  • 2 weeks later...

Is geoff at full race ever going to post results of his personal rb26 + efr set up?

Probably why nothing posted ....new build with motor 7 inches rearward.

A) Twin EFR 6258, on a 2.6L RB26, tomei 280 cams, mild headwork, stock intake manifold/tb

B) Single EFR 8374 .92 a/r, Full-Race twinscroll manifold, on a 100% Stock RB26, Tomei Poncams are the only engine internal modification.

I know that dyno reads notoriously LOW, and I think the single was found to have a boost leak which is why it wanted to drop boost up high. The torque curve looks nice on the twins, but I agree with Lithium we need more boost to see what they really do.

We're you hear that? I pulled the pics off GTROC, but there wasn't any other info.

I know the tuner, and know that dyno. I also know that those pulls were in 3rd gear, so it looks less impressive than a 4th gear pull. It's getting HOT in AZ so 4th gear pulls on that dyno really work the cars harder than necessary. I'm sure Geoff will post up when he gets a chance, he's up to his ass in the new race car build over there at Full Race.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
