Have asked this for the last two years. The goal posts keep changing, I doubt even Borg Warner know when they will have availability of these turbos (or at least they aren't telling anyone). The latest when I asked about 4 or 6 weeks ago was that they should have it this month.... Well, I can only hope.

As I mentioned I have been talking to the shop for almost two years now and they give me the answer they get from Full-Race which apparently after talking to them again is officially there source for the turbo
every time we get to a release date they just give you another one. I could not imagine what could have caused for such a big back order on the turbo, there was some talk about the ss housings but surly that isn't a problem that would take two years to solve there must be something else in the equation that we are missing ore are not being told.
I don't understand why BW can't keep us more informed since by their hands and there distributers they have sold a bunch of turbo's they have not manufactured yet and aren't capable to deliver to the end customer

looks like Monday will be the day to dyno.
anyone looking for anything in particular?
unfortunately it will not be on a dyno jet as R/T and Geoff have used. it will be on a superflow, which reads the same as our local dyno jet.

Same boost, same tune, same fuel....
Overlay a 2nd gear pull , 3rd gear pull, and 4th gear pull. All pulls starting from 2k.
Do the same but start at 4000 RPMS in 2,3,4.
What I think would be useful for comparisons against my setup...or to add to the level of confidence in the data....
18-20 psi pull on your fuel (pump or E85?)
25psi at redline pull on your fuel.

Or if evodad gets the run files I can overlay them against mine as well and post them up... same as I did for Geoff's 8374
I'm on E-85, spuds good I will do these on Monday.
My intake manifold is my restriction right now.
Last night on DSMlink I logged 62lbs/min @ 33psi.
Also keep in mind that my car has mad tyte jdm gearing.

my ID2000's were at 70% @ 300kpa on E85... 11.8:1AFRs
Evosdad,
I'm running twin walbros at 55psi base pressure.
Are you logging fuel pressure? I would think that pump can't keep up with this turbo... Especially at 30psi (base pressure plus this 30psi)...and furthermore at that IDC on injectors that big.
