I personally think that I would prefer an EFR8374 on my car. In saying that you couldn't really ask much more from the PTE 6262, 710rwhp is crazy and response is very good.

The main thing that turned me off the EFR was the physical size and lack of housing options in external gate, in fact if someone can show me one will fit between my strut tower and my motor, plus a T4 divided in a 0.8 rear and I'll give it a go

I have my 8374 fitting between the struts in my R32, and it has the T4 divided .92A/R IWG housing so it's even fussier to fit. Yeah it's tight, but no issues. You wouldn't want anything smaller than the .92a/r on an RB26 or RB30.....it's borderline too small on mine, I could still fit the A/C pump back in if I wanted......but I'm reserving the space for a dry sump pump one day :-) Edited by Sub Boy32

You arent using a full race manifold then I guess? My full race manifold put the turbo quite a fair bit forward

No, I had Sinco Customs make me one, it's similar to their TO4Z manifold, but has been lowered to suit the extra height of the RB30 and the size of the EFR.

With the EFR7064....in T4 TS 1.05 A/R configuration

Would this be enough for insane response, broad power band and 8000rpm redline on a 2.0L or 2.2L SR20 (with correct cam selection) while pushing over 400rwhp?

My goals are to find a turbo which will support my goals of a very fast street car (in all aspects) which will also be brutal on the circuit...

The newer 7163 should be superior, both will support more than 400whp on E85.

Want to keep it on 98 octane....

I like the idea of dual external wastegate T4 twin scroll.... which the 7163 doesn't have.

The 7064 seems (t4 ts 1.05/ar ext wastegate) seems as though itll have more top end potential whilst retaining savage response...

The 1.05 is prob a bit big. The .92 easily,easily will achieve that goal. I have a 2.15L SR20 with a 7064 .92 and Poncams (tiny) and mine made 258rwkw on about 16psi with very,very conservative timing. It goes a lot harder now but haven't dynoed it since. Still can't afford to take it in for another run. With 24-26psi and 260 degree Procams, it'd go off it's head (Prob 350 odd rwkw. My injectors/gearbox/clutch would not support that level of power).

Awesome to hear Brad....

What RPM are you achieving full boost and what is the transient/throttle response like? Is the acceleration fairly savage as is and what is the car like for spirited driving?

I hear the EFR's well and truly come to life when high boost is pushed into them.

Full boost at 3300 if loaded up in a high gear from low RPM. Transient throttle at anything above 3700 is insanely, insanely quick on to boost. Comes on gradually and very controllable if loading up from low rpm. If u hit the throttle at 4500-ish, u gotta be careful becomes on very fast and hard.

Been wondering if it's physically possible to fit a 7163 onto a RB25 stock manifold.

I make out that a GT3071 is about 150mm from face of flange to furthest point on compressor housing. The 6758 (which I understand is outline identical to 7163) is about 165~170mm in T25 form. Possibly even bigger in TS T4 format. Given you would need a spacer to fit the 7163 (to convert to T3), it's probably 20mm or so closer to shock tower...

Anyone know how much extra room there is in R33 GTST engine bay with GT3071 / GT3076? Would one of these EFR turbos fit?

Pics below of references. I made pretty agricultural measurements assuming the pics are to scale.

Also for s#!ts and giggles, I overlaid GT3071, GT3076 and EFR 7163 compressor maps.

Notes:

Efficiency island:

GT 76%

EFR 74%

Speed lines:

GT 120k

EFR 110k & 130k

The 7163 looks pretty damn impressive. Thoughts on how spool time would be compared with GT3071?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
