The T25 and T3 stuff is only single entry and internal wastegate, right? Some of those features look very sexy. Are any of those pictures of the t4 divided/internal wastegate? So how does the flow of the turbine wheels compare size wise to the garretts? 58mm EFR ~= GT30 flow?
BW is the OEM for many companies, porsche included obviously. From what ive seen, it seems like the integrated recirc valve will be on everything in a few years

How does a 1.05 A/R T4 turbine housing cover a range of turbine sizes from 55mm-80mm?
Or is it simply not intended for under a certain turbine size? Seems like the 70mm turbine would be bigger then needed for the high 40/low 50 lbm range compressors and the 64mm or 58mm wheel would be too small for such a large housing.

Not necessarily. If you were planning on running this turbo in road racing or rally I would certainly consider it. If it is available without the integrated BOV, drag racing probably wouldnt see as much benefit since there is far less shifting and getting on and off throttle.

the integrated BOV comes standard on every turbo. You have three options:
1) run the built-in BOV
2) disable it and use the tial
3) run both
i would pick option #1 personally, but it will be interesting to log boost during gearshifts with the different BOV combinations to see which has the fastest boost recovery
i agree, i expect the response to be better becuase the turbo is keeping spooled, and the compressed air is not going through the core just to be released, so reduced heat input into the intercooler core
the largest of the EFR series is called the EFR 91-80 and has a 67mm inducer with true 1000hp potential. I suggest that option for many high power setups becuase i dont know of any other 1000hp capable turbo that can spool or respond as fast as this.
if you need more than the EFR 91-80 can put out, you will need to look at some of the S400SX airwerks turbos
yes, all will be released Nov 1st at the start of SEMA
All the EFR turbos come with the integrated BOV. if the end user doesnt want to use it, you just install the disabling cover plate and that locks the diaphragm shut
it is not possible, they share nothing in common
the small 55mm turbine wheels are T25 .64 a/r only (internal WG). the mid->large turbine wheels are .83 a/r T3 flanged (internal WG), .92 a/r T4 twinscroll (internal WG) or 1.05 a/r T4 twinscroll (External WG req'd)
Keep in mind, all of these turbos were "clean sheet" meaning each housing was designed for each wheel, and the wheels for the housings. Each wheel/housing combination has a "sweet spot" of turbine efficiency and incidence angle, which is not lost in the different A/R combos

Any idea on pricing?
