Do you plan on building this soon? How hard do you rev it? Any other changes apart from the snail? 

Its gonna be interesting to see the difference, especially in the real world.

Still on the factory gearbox?

Will build when it pops.  Probably rev to 8500.

It has getrag behind it now with diff. No other changes to motor aside from turbo.

Do you at least have decent headstuds? the OEM ones are known to stretch and lift heads

I ended up with 1.05 as it didnt look like the 1.45 would fit on current mani.

Should be on this week with tune next week or so.

Nice, I don't really think the 1.05 should be a show stopper at all - especially on a "mild" 2.6, I'd say the turbine speed would be the key thing to keep an eye on.  Very interested to see what the difference is from the 1.05 EFR8374!

 

Good luck :)

After reading through this thread you all convinced me to not get a Garrett GTX3582R and instead I just purchased purchased a efr8374 1.05 ex gate from gcg turbos yesterday. Also brought a 6boost split pulse manifold and 50mm turbosmart pro gate.

Can’t wait to institute in the coming weeks.

Guys, what do you think the below setup? Would it be laggy?

1. efr9180 1.05

2. Fullrace manifold running twin gates

3. Rb26 87mm forged CP piston 9:1 compression with tomei rods

4. Ported head with tomei type b cams

5. Greddy intake

6. Getrag with 4.1 final drives

I hv been searching for results of 9180 on stock 2.6l displacement but couldnt find much info.  what i am really after is whether it is going to be laggy.

Fuel will be 97 but running on wmi.

Thanks

 

 

From guys that have gone from -5’s/2530’s to a 9180/1.05, it behaves like a pair of -5’s to 4000 rpm then the 9180 will walk away from it.

If an 8374/1.05 is on 500 rpm earlier than a pair of -5’s then how much later can a 9180 be?

*using -5’s as a yard stick.

How hard will you be leaning on it?

It won’t be the most responsive setup in the world but you are talking about a 94 lb/minute turbo all in.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
