That one works fine cheers mate! That BOV would be getting very hot without heat shielding I imagine, did he go to a full race metal cover? I hadn't heard any mention of the noise these things made either until Greg mentioned it. Hopefully the 6758 is just as noisy but it has the type a front which isn't anti-surged and only 2.5" inlet.

Has anyone here run a EFR 9174 or 9180 1.05Ar on a RB30 or Stroker??  Looking at running a Borgy on a 26/3.4. But cannot decide .. Looking to see what would work best in a drift car

 

for a 3L or 3.4L the single EFR will choke.  Twin EFR is my recommendation.

What is the boost target ?  If lower than 25psi on a 3.4L go 9180 1.05 a/r.  If higher than that go 9174 1.45 as the compressor will spin close to the max rpm the 80mm turbine can take.

both of those options will likely choke due to backpressure on a 3.4L engine

Long thread but 8374 on 3.2 results towards the end

Ever taken any EGP readings on combo's like this, Geoff?

Page 26 on this thread has my result on a 26/3.2 EFR8374

Tune #1 done, I was a bit concerned about this happening but it is what it is - the BW EFR internal wastegate is a big pile of fail and blows open as exhaust pressure builds.  The turbo itself seems to perform awesome, VE is holding nicely up to 7000rpm so far and no hints of excess back pressure, intake temps never reached 30C... I'm going to try and get video of the gate opening as rpm increase despite having 80% duty on the boost control solenoid.

256kw at 14psi, hitting 18psi by 3500rpm - will be revisited at some point with a Turbosmart dual port actuator.  Car drives basically like a Euro, it spools better on the road than my Mazdaspeed 3 with the stock K04 :O

In case folks hadn't been following, the above is a T3 0.83 internally gated EFR7064 on an RB25 - btw.

A helpful mate has offered use of his high pressure BW actuator to test out on this car to make sure that fixes it before buying things, thanks @Sub Boy32!    Hoping that it allows us to hold around 18-19psi, or whatever it seems appropriate to run :)

    • 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.
