Sounded great @ Super Lap Battle in the SSE Evo

 

^^^ understatement !

 

that twinscroll EFR is pure sex! id have to look into this turbo a little more. speed sensor setup? whaaa

i can see what all the hypes about

 

looks awesome

 

Very interested for a 2.3L

 

Interested in 8674 (did I get that right) for a 2.4L LOL

 

An 8374 hung off a LR2.4L would be crazy.
Better beef up the entire drivetrain!

 

no crap, i went with a 2.2L to soften the torque a bit.

 

[QUOTE=Full-Race Geoff;8930770]thanks for your enthusiasm - but be patient because the twinscroll EFR turbos will not arrive until the beginning of February.



Geoff, I'm ready to order. My FP-Red gave up the ghost. Time for a new Turbo kit.

What setup will you put in your EVO? I talked to Ravi at the FR shop today and he said the 7670 was the way to go but I needed the 1.05 housing to fit in the EVO. I'm road racing mostly and was considering a HTA-3076 with 82AR before I started reading about the EFR series. Now I just need to pick the perfect one and find a way to wait 3 months.

Edit: found this excellent advice from Geoff.

 

Where is the update here

 

So which BW turbo is the approximate to an HTA35R86? That is what I have now and my seals are going so I'm shopping for a replacement. Should I get the same turbo or go with a BW setup?

 

I doubt your seals in your turbo are going it is probably your engine failing.

 

LOL What?! Mr internet diagnostic man thanks for your quick opinion however, My turbo has shaft play in and out and is smoking. I think it is the turbo as my car still has gobbs of power, I just dont like the smoke and am looking for a replacement..

 

8374 is the closest to a hta86.

 

Well that is very unusual to have a thrust failure on a ball bearing center section. Usually a ball bearing turbo will snap a shaft before bearing failure.
