It might be too late to ask this, but do you guys think the EFR 6758 is too big for the RB26? I'm like neck-deep in the build now, so it's probably too late to turn around, but curious what you guys think. I got them super cheap so couldn't pass them up, so this is my life now. 

I'd like to check out this build. There's gonna be some sick parts to support these little guys. Do you have a build thread somewhere?

I do not have a build thread. But I could certainly make one. I'm not doing the work myself, so some details/pictures might be lacking. Let me throw a thread together some time this week and I'll let you know.

looks good!  only question is regarding the intake tubes/filters - are they 3" ?  or 2.5"

I'm not sure. I can ask. Would it make a difference and if so, what should it be?

Ok - I prefer to see 3" as the smallest diameter for the inlet. 

 

edit:  the 2.5" will work fine, but 3" can better avoid any surge with 7163s

These are 6758's, if it makes a difference.

I'm using the turbosmart twin port actuator (14psi springs 3 turns preload) with 5.4w 4 port Mac valve @20Hz  max d.c 60% for 1.6 bar boost @3800rpm. High and Low 3d boost maps on Link G4+

Had the EFR high boost canister but it is hopeless for good control and used to severely over-boost after 20 mins driving when WOT. It was about 20mm away from #1 runner so I extended the turbosmart actuator 50mm forward. Boost control is damn near perfect.

@Meathead did you have to cut some more thread on the arm of the turbosmart actuator? My IWG actuator hits on the body of the car and was thinking extending it in this fashion would work almost perfectly i think.

Is that the 'inconel' brand beanie? Did i already ask this or was it a diferent one? [emoji14]
 
Yeah I'm curious too. I have a genuine efr one to go on my 7163 and it's freakin huuuuuuge. Same beanie they fit on the 9180. One size fits.... Most

Hope so, mine just left Austin...

The 'Inconel' brand stuff kinda lost me at them trying to make it out like the inconel was what makes it insulate, and not that the inconcel is just the high temp protecting casing for whatever they use inside for insulation.
And also the prices
:8_laughing:

Buraz' car.

Went from a Precision 6262/0.84 to a 9180/1.05 on his Racepace built 2.8L.

"target boost" was the same RPM - 4700 RPM, however the 9180 feels much stronger sub 3500 RPM. (Yes, the bigger turbo with the bigger ass end felt stronger down low). That falls in line with a couple other 2.8/9180 results that have come through lately.

6262 made 430 rwkw at 24 psi

9180 made 483 rwkw at 24 psi and 498 rwkw at 27 psi so possibly needs a larger exhaust. It's only a 3.5 inch RP item.

* Adnan loves to rape this thing so the tune is softer than most.

Once again, the transient response is the stand out. The stuff that can't be shown on the dyno.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
