Early on MAP claimed the antisurge housing lost a decent amount of spool on the EF3, That was before even the Beta release. So i guess i dont have a real answer for you since they have been and are still tweaking everything they can to make these perform at an even higher level!
I dont wanna misslead anyone in case it has changed someone from MAP will have to chime in.

We did see some spool lost going with the anti-surge cover on the EF3, however if you go with the standard cover and don't keep surge in check longevity of your turbocharger will suffer.

Just kidding. For those that do not believe, this is proof what a good group of parts can do for a set up. 500whp and 450wtq on E85 @ 27PSI is great (but you knew that already). I hope that I can achieve roughly 475whp and 425wtq with my MAP 2.1L engine when it is all said and done.

Yup, sorry for the confusion, I sold the car to a local guy about a year and a half ago, but have kept in contact with him. He isn't a member here so I figured I'd post it for him

I believe that I will be the only one here running the EF3 on the stock block and pump/91 as a short-term set up. I just want to take things easy and preserve the bottom end until I can get it built.
