My 6258 got pulled off the other day. Still in excellent condition after its first 17psi track outing. :)

Should have everything back together soon, then back on the dyno without an air leak... Hopefully.

Still looking good. :)

Turbine housing and exhaust manifold have both been ceramic coated, flange surfaces on the inlet manifold have been machined (3 of 4 were out of tolerance apparently), oil drain will be rectified next time I have a day off. Then I'll slap it back together, and it get back on the dyno, hopefully, with the mystery air leak sorted out.

Tha coating looks great. I'll do that on mine for sure.

I'm just REALLY frustrated about which one to get. "over-revving" these turbos seems to be a big no-no which sux because a 6258 looks ideal for awesome response on a 2.15L SR20 but even though I'm happy to run it down to 60% efficiency up near rev limiter, it's going beyond the "recommended" RPM. Not interested in th 6758 at all. It's compressor map looks horrible and the 7064's inducer is smaller anyway.

I just wish turbos were more customisable. I think the 70mm compressor model should also be offered with a 61mm turbine for smaller engines and a T3 divided .82 housing as well to fill the gap between the T25 .64 and the T4 divided .92/T3 .82 (both spool about the same).

What are the RPM limits on the EFR's?

That looks real clean. Who did the coating and what did it cost for the housing?

So get a 3071?

Anyway, i was at a track day recently and another s13 was out there with a .64 6758.

Basic built red top, 260/12mm camtechs, greddy intake manifold maybe and a high mount manifold. The thing was making a touch over 300rwkw at 21psi all in by 3500. Cheating with E85 but still very impressive.

I certainly wouldn't discount them.

3071R is bigger that a 7064. I want smaller. I'd use a 7064 over a 6758, even if I lost 150rpm of spool (which is all the dirrefence would be) in exchange for 10psi less exhaust manifold pressure and and extra 30kw up top. Makes for a way safer setup. It just annoys me that one must choose between a T25 .64 turbine housing and the next thing up is a T3 .82 with nothing in between. A T3 .82 divided housing for the 6258 through to 7670 would be just SO WINNING!

E&H Motors in NZ have just released results of their testing with a twin scroll GTX3076R versus a twin scroll EFR7670 on their 2litre STI track car - worth noting that these results are not "all in", they have a stronger motor which will be used for that in future. From what the owner/tuner says it seems the EFR is much nicer to drive, and it sounds a bit like the EFR was seeming more eager to keep making more power.

I think it was just that they were aiming for an EFR7670 from the start, and ended up getting a GTX3076R to get going because of the huge waits for getting an EFR - or something to that effect. The test wasn't to because they were doing a shoot out, more just a result of having both turbos.

I know they've had a twin scroll GT3582R as well, I might see if they ever tried that on the Subaru....

Seems the EFR turbos don't need E85 to make good numbers - another Kiwi lad had his RB30DET R32 GTR tuned running a .92a/r twin scroll EFR8374 today on BP Ultimate, 462kw @ hubs on 20psi... full boost by 3300rpm.

Not too shabby!

Nice!

If only using one of these turbos was realistic. Waiting forever and having a questionable lifespan is very off putting.

Not that Id be at all interested anymore, owning a T3 6boost now -_-

Very nice! For the SR20? What trubro is going on it?

The life span of them don't seem to be a problem since the foundry change, I actually know of a few people using them - a 550whp STI I know has been using a 7670 lately with no issue, an EVO track car over here has also been using an EFR8374 and it has been performing excellently

Yeap for my SR. My DET block is down at the machinist right now, im waiting for a call to tell me what size slugs to order.

Having done as much reading as possible into readily available options I couldnt go past a simple TD06. The FP 73HTA wheel apparently needs a bit of energy to be turned and isnt likely to be as responsive as the old 20g item (more or less making it useless for me as I want 270-300kw). I also found a number of resources from people saying they had owned 3071 and TD06 SR's and found the TD06 to be a lot better matched.

So yeah, logical deduction lead me back to a simple kando TD06. $560 later and its crackin.

Sorry peeps, back to BW EFR :)

I wouldn't have (don't think I did) ever suggest the 73HTA for yours anyway - I reckon a 68HTA would have been great. I also lean towards TD06-20G vs GT3071R as well. Shame BW aren't doing EFR6758s in T3 though, I reckon one of those on an SR20 would be mental.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
