So, realistically, how long are we looking at?

I've only been waiting for 7 months so far

custom radiator... double bypass with cowl to mount the slim fan even slimmer... the problem is again space... to clear waste gate, turbo hose and intake pipe.

Then some new pics on the final dump pipes before ceramic coating, and coating this a MUST!!! Again you must run pipes close to header for clearance with thicker radiators

Your wastegate outlet routing has really improved, looks good.

I read vivid racing review on this turbo and it makes me sad. I thought this was going to be the new best thing. I guess I will be staying with stock turbo for awhile.

Then they tested the 7670 against a gtx35r with a .63 housing which the 7670 out spooled it and made slightly more power.

At least they gave us dyno info instead of silence from every efr owner. Are they paying all of you to be quiet?

what are you talking about? Vivid racing is right down the street from us... we are friendly and use their mustang dyno on occasion. they did not test any EFR turbos, all the EFR testing that went on there was done by us.

He's probably talking about this thread, going by the comparisons he quoted: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=2135597

Geoff, I'm glad you said that, because that information sounded ridiculous. They are literally down the street from you all.. so if something like that happened I'm sure they woulda let you know..

Anyway, I am just about to buy the S300 while I wait for the 8174EFR to be available.. We, Force-Fed Performance, couldn't wait any longer.. hahaha.. I'm sure that turbo will be nice in the meantime. lol...
