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.

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.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
