Should we speculate while we wait? Lets try.
I guess, a stock location 7163.
Why? Well the 7163 is one of the hottest EFR turbos atm. It arguably outperforms the 7670, and is the only true gen 2 offering with mixed flow technology. Basically, the 7163 is "the new hotness" for fast spooling, 60 lb/min flowing turbos.
The main criticism of the 7163 is its lack of housing options. T4 twin scroll is only available in .80AR IWG configuration. With its housing size & IWG location, fitting it to an Evo is almost unheard of.
Since I just don't see CBRD releasing a non-twin scroll turbo, or a slow spooling turbo, something in the ~60lb/min range just makes sense. So if they can figure out a way to make it fit the evo, they will have themselves an instant winner.

Although I am thinking a 6758 might be a better fit for the Evo 8/9.

sorry guys- we are just overwhelmed here- developing kits on the X, 8/9, GTR- and our current workload- doing the best we can-
3 people can only do so much hee he- ill post info as soon as we can - the EVO X kit took precedent because we are seeing more of them through the shop currently- and we had some clients that were really pressing us for something new- so that is being buttoned up- and we will release the other info-
the EFR setup on an 8/9 is running in some road race events- shortly- and we will have feedback on that also!

Wish would have known about this. Would have let my leaky 9 turbo leak away until this came out lol...
