Apparently 480 AWKW was the most power out of a 8374 awkw (out of an Evo) Scott has seen on his dyno.

Nick (3.0/8374) went 461, 24 psi

Pete (3.2/vcam/8374) went 457awkw, 25 psi tapering back to 21 psi (120,000 turbine speed).

I don't know. It's all dictated by that magic 127,000 RPM turbine speed. What will be more interesting will be the boost level that it'll need to get there. Going off the -5 setup, it went 441 at 19 psi. Realistically, I should have just left it there.  Boost level I'm gonna peg at no more then 25 psi, tapering back down. 

How does that power compare with Garrets and Precision etc on same dyno? Sounds lower than I would expect but apples with apples

I'd have to ask Scott, Simon. Haven't really asked to be honest. Pete did a back to back between a 6266/0.84 to a 8374/1.05 but the car was pretty ill when it arrived. Having driven that car in both setups, the 8374 belts it for the stuff you can't see on the dyno. Your assume the 6266 with its 0.84 ass end would be stronger down low, that is most definately not the case, let alone the transient stuff. 

If his car was anything to go off, the PTE needed 28 psi to make 460 kw and the EFR needed 21 psi to make 457. *Different dynos though.

A 9180 blows about 550 kw on that dyno for example before it taps out due to speed.

A Gen 2 3582R, PTE 6266 and a 8374 comparison would be awesome. But the fab work involved makes it a very expensive exercise.

Honestly I'd have given a EFR8374 a go if it wasn't for all the fab... Instead I seem to be stuck with the 6262 (not being a bad thing) but now I'm up to 5 sets of cams that have been in the car haha

Latest better be awesome considering I've gone backwards 4 times in some way shape or form

5 sets of cam setups? What are you chasing to warrant 5 different setups? You could have had a EFR setup with change.

I really hope mine spins more than 550, be a fair bit off where I want to be. 

 

That speed "cap" is a pain. 

Owell only one way to find out ?

What happens when you pop a ic pipe at 25psi and over speed them? 

 

Boom? 

I doubt the boom is that inevitable, I'm fairly sure a mate had that exact thing happen on his EFR8374 drift car after he first went to one and he just lost power and his heart sunk because of the stories about overspeeding - but then realised what happened, got it sorted and carried on.  Car is still going strong.

Worth avoiding, obviously - but not necessarily immediate death.  Much the same as how you have people running around with boost leaks all over the place with stock ceramic turbo Nissans who never realised it.  I guess not having the full load on the turbo MAY take some of the edge off?

Lol!  

How is your car going?

Slowly. Motor is almost there I am told then its off for fab work before wiring and then tune.

Maybe July...

You staying with the EFR party?

I've gone a 6870 1.15 rear for now as I wanted over 600awkw. It looks like the 9280 will do the power I want when it is released so I plan on swapping back at that point.

I just wanna go fast

I spose sensor back to ecu, if it falls out of "x" parameters then have some sort of protection in place... whatever that may be.

What am I missing with these EFRs? 

I thought you just took a look at the comp map, aimed for a decent efficiency island for your power goal, as you do with any turbo choice, and that was that?

Can't think of when I've seen people talking about turbine speed so intently with other brands. Are the EFRs particularly sensitive to overspeeding?

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
