What's the deal with the turbosmart Bov's to suit EFR? What is the difference between the plumb back and the dual port? It looks like the only thing is the dual port has the option to dump to atmosphere?

V band + 1.45 + coating + some fitting kit. All added up. 

Anyway.... moving on lol

Nice work, this sounds like a mental setup.  Keep us up to date - hope it works out well :)

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.

How hard do you plan on pushing this thing, turbine speed wise? 

Not really too sure yet.

It is a stock bottom end after all so i doubt we'll max out the turbo.

I'd like to cap it at 28psi but not sure how much turbine speed that would be.

575kw on JEMs dyno will do me. Should get me 140mph....or an big explosion... either way exciting times ahead!

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?

if anyone needs turbos or speed sensors, we have both in stock and happy to match any prices online.  also we have a new Turbo Speed Gauge that is pre-programmed for EFR turbos:

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
