I'd imagine for flow rates towards the upper end of the 8374 the 9174 will have a lower exhaust manifold pressure as the compressor will be more efficient, all other things equal.

at 75lb/min @ 2 bar you're at 65% on the 83mm but still up over 72% on the 91mm that effeciency change correlates to shaft power requirement dropping, so the required turbine pressure ratio also drops.

 

the changeover in efficiency occurs at about 58lb/min. less than that the 8374 will be lower pressure, and more than that the 9174 will be lower. during acceleration transients however the 9174 will be slightly higher due to the increase in inertia of the larger comp wheel.

that is correct, 9174 works best with the big 1.45 a/r housing when pushing the turbos limit.  The 74mm turbine is relatively small to swing the 91mm compressor so anything that can be done to reduce preturbine drive pressure at high rpm / high boost is a win for this one. 

if only Borg warner made an EFR 67/84mm compressor wheel!

maybe even anodize it black?

9174 on a well built 2.7lt 4 cyl

 

That's just bollux.  What a ridiculous power delivery haha.

For those who didn't watch the video - check out this power delivery, 300kw at 4000rpm on something holding power to 8500rpm... Like 875hp power.  There isn't much to question there.

 

Cheers for sharing!

That's with a 1.00TCF too, so basically ~1000bhp @ engine with the FR combination in that car with the rear end and 1:1 4th (minimal gear train *gearbox* losses no driver/driven x driven/driver power flow since direct drive *no lay shaft* so input shaft>output shaft).

Now to pick what to use on the EVO????

we built the turbo kit on steph's drift car.  its a 2.6L engine from a toyota sienna minivan, typically he revs to 7800-8000rpm depending on the track and gearing.  Turbo setup is divided t4 manifold, very similar to evo but flipped so its a top mount obviously.  the turbo started as 8374 0.92 a/r, then tested 1.05 a/r 8374 and went back to 0.92 once they had the nitrous on the car.  He is battling V8s and 2jz's so he needs as much bottom end torque as is possible.  once they switched to the 9174 he kept the 0.92 a/r for a while due to the setup already being built and in place.  as of right now i believe he is back on the 1.05 a/r. 

keep in mind there is a lot of nitrous on this engine

What kind of exhaust pressure increase are you seeing on the 9174 over the 8374 for a given turbine housing size/engine combo?

it depends entirely on the application - altitude, engine size, max rpm, boost level, VE, etc.  typically the 9174 exhibits increased emap at most points

Yeah, definitely noticed that - ANNNNND in the most "harsh" correction mode Dynapack dynos offer.   No two ways about it, this is making some big power with a very wide delivery.

Yep good to know a 9174 with 1.45 will actually do 1000bhp on a 2.7lt engine. It's not often you find nuggets of info like that around, saves having to test everything yourself for sure!

Somebody help me out, being offered a seemingly near new 7670 with a 1.05 TS rear on it. this would be to go on my forged SR with a sexy head and good TS manifold. 

Too big/small max power? I have a hard time wraping my head around EFRs other than they seem to be a "good" thing. 

Sprint/time attack style car so the transient is what interests me, I'm expected the motor to be capable of "decent" revs. 

The 7670 is the turbo I used to have,
Up to 450kw, maybe even 465kw.

It's a big turbo. It's not as big a turbo if you're realistically considering using it as a track car, i.e always up in that rev range. You'd have to define "sexy head" as this is a turbo you'd be need to be living at 5-8k at constantly.

It is GTX3576 sized.

I guess I don't know what turbos you are familiar with, but I feel like the most sensible way of describing one is if you were looking at something using "back in the day" turbo terms - its in the area of a Trust/Kinugawa T67 - Garrett GT3582R power wise but wanted better response (just to clarify, I'm not saying it will be like a supercharger - just something that is in that power range with less lag) then you should be happy with it.

Maybe it was the 7163 I was looking at. 
 

 

Haven't seen much of the Gen2 GTX3076Rs, but I'd take an EFR7670 over a Gen1 GTX3076R from what I've seen.  

An EFR7163 would be a beast on an SR, though if you are going for high rpm there is a chance of choking it - I'd use the biggest housing you can get on that turbo.

I would highly recommend AGAINST the 7163 for your track use. IMHO the rear exits are too small for TS use. I would think a 7670 and 1.05 (MAYBE even the smaller 0.92) would be perfect. The 7163 only come in 0.80 rear in TS form which I believe (no expert) chokes too much, especially under higher RPM.

FYI I'm running an EFR7163 on T4 TS SR20DET. I will be pushing it HARD to get maximum response and power for street / light track duties. But the small lag hit I think you'd be wanting the extra ~80-100rwkw and freer flowing turbo setup.

I don't wanna blow the bottom end apart trying to "use" a turbo properly. 

Will have CP pistons, Manly rods, and some other tricks, but I was under the impression most "basic" forged h beams were only good for 600-650 crank hp in an SR, but how long is a piece of string?

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
