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 :)

    • Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.
    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
