Hi Geoff,
Earlier in this thread you suggested i use the BW S300sx 84-75 .91a/r.
Mainly used for street and track. Now that these EFR turbos are out, would you still suggest using the turbo mentioned or the new EFR line?

I can't wait to get mine...

 

Pulled the trigger last Friday and ordered the biggest EFR 7670!

 

Congrats ! Did you get the twin scroll ? What's your engine set up (2.0, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4)?

 

When I said the biggest, that meant the 1.05 A/R TS.
Long Rod 2.0L
Manley 88mm Crank/Pauter 156mm Rods/Manley 8.5:1, 1.13" CH .020" over Pistons
Curt Brown Spec 2g Head
GSC S2 Cams
JMF Divided T4 Exhaust Manifold w/1.25" ID primaries
JMF Drag SMIM

 

good choice on the 1.05 a/r 7670. i just picked up an evo 8 for a fun street car project. the plan is to run a 1.05 a/r 7670 on stock motor + E85 for a little while - it should be a fun setup!

 

Oh snap did you really? Very nice dude have fun with it!

That's great Geoff! That's the turbo I want

 

As of last Friday Full-Race had two left for pre-order... I bought one of them.
Sounds like Geoff has dibs on the last one for his Evo VIII.

Geoff, what's the ETA on the 1.05 EFR 7670's?
Word around the campfire is 1st week of Feb?

 

Holy smoke that's great! But you know what, if you would actually keep one of these turbos you've been buying and try it out on your car it would be even better!

 

The wait is ending up to be a bit longer than I anticipated. Should give me enough time to hide some funny money.

 

Yes - delivery is currently expected the 1st/2nd week of February. Ive been dying to put a 7670 on a simple evo build. The february arrival gives me the month of january to get the chassis and fuel system ready. I realllly want to use a set of ATS or carbonetic front LSD + os giken rear LSD. keep the motor stock for a while, maybe throw a good head and intake manifold on tho.

thanks for your patience - it WILL be worth the wait

 

LOL... Agreed!

 

Geoff wanted or someone who can say this turbo wasnīt BEPed..
The story:
just ordered some stuff for my DSM/ 2.0l 6Bolt from my favourie vendor..and asked him if he can check BW s300 91/79 turbo in T4div.. he said will see tommor let you know..second day received email with words he can... so I asked him again..is it real BW unit not missmatched BEP piece. I donīt want get BEP turbo..If you canīt find other than BEP I go with Full race..even its harder get it over sea to Europe..he said no its BW unit from BW dealer.. I said okay going with.. Iam overseas so its really pain find place/vendor who cares all the stuff you need..imagine take care on shipping prices on clutches..turbos ..and other heavy parts over sea to Europe..then take care on all customs things..So I was happy i get all parts on one place..

Today received my packages and hell there was BEP box...from this time I feel cus read lotta threads people talking do not put your hands on BEP BW turbos..I donīt have any experience with it , donīt wanna say BEP is crap.. Iam just reading and searching on lotta forums..and found BEP turbos are falling to fail...

check out those pics..and tell me if there is any sign this turbo was parted on pieces and then reassembled at BEP.. signs like various colors on blades..different nuts.. etc
Heard BEP clipped ex wheels to match T3..they grind O.D. of ex wheel..??or what does it mean.. with that said Iam scared my ex wheel got some grinding on side of blades too..when look into ex outlet..

anyways meassured my turbo and I got
66.1mm C In
91.4mm C Ex

79.8mm Ex In
73.5mm ex ex

I know there is BEP label on center cartridge...so "it is BEP unit" but in plastic bag the turbo camed found alu pin..so my theory is BEP just opened that plastic bag..drilled out old BW label...and put on BEP label/badge..
and reship in BEP box...
secondly just put out comp side..and there was some sealant in the threads of the screws..same red color as is on Oil inlet 90°flange/adapter Means to me BEP never opened Comp cover...so they didnīt loose nut on turbo shaft..Turbo should be okay/untouched in BEP Hope so..

next question..as for Oiling..wanna use my old 4AN ss line with earl oil filter ,feeded from my 6Bolt head with oem oil press valve in head. Read Geoff recommended 4AN with 0.05" or 0.035" restrictor cus BWs are engineered for low oil..


Any input will be great/ you know peace of mind.. If you canīt trust the part you put in..than its BAD..thats how I feel it esp wanna push it up to 43PSI on E85..

Thank you
Venca
