You definitely want to get the 4 port mac and dual port turbosmart actuator. I bang on about this a lot, but find a 12watt solendoid MAC valve, its useful duty cycle range is much larger than the 5.4w version and gives more granular control (which is important on a 4 port implementation) ebay "MAC 46A-HIGH FREQUENCY" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/466636-borg-warner-efr-series-turbos-v-20/page/39/#findComment-7835752 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I ended up ordering a 9174. When told back then they didn't have any I asked if anything from a 7670, 8374 or 9180 was available which was annoying because I had to give them each part number . Was then told they'd call me back in 15 minutes. After waiting a few hours I called them back. This went on for about 4 days til I eventually just said I'd wait til mid June for what I ordered as they couldn't work out if they had any of those models in stock. I'd be surprised if they are able to get any of the efr turbos. If anybody could put me onto someone with stock at a good price that would be wonderful thanks.

Lithium Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 The "cracking" pressure of the new one is around 17psi, the old one around 8-9psi. The plan was to run it up to around 20psi, or at least what it would run happily - last time that obviously wasn't a thing.

Lithium Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 People I know in NZ seem to have been getting them VERY quickly lately, there may be a bit of stock for some EFRs if people in Oz may want to get one from here - I can enquire if needed.

Just on that, I see SPARESBOX have them and most of the efr range on eBay now listed as being in stock and for delivery in a few days . I called to ask WTF as I'm told to wait til September. They said they all come from their warehouse in USA and will take 7 business days. I believe this is very misleading so be careful purchasing on eBay through Sparesbox. I'm not sure what if they are waiting for the us dollar to change or what. The 2 options I see are paying a premium from someone like gcg who may have something on the shelf or buy from the states and hope nothing goes wrong. Someone from this forum needs to bring a container load here. ?
