So what are you suggesting is the best option - EF3/4 are both stock frame. I could get close with a bolt n TD06SL2R-20G for 1/2 the price of an EF3/4 and get around 430WHP max - but thats what most people do..

The question is though is could an EF4 make 500WHP without meth with my mods, expecting intake temps/backpressure to be lower but is it really an option for a street car.

An EF3 would make it with meth, but thats another $1000 plus buying meth regularly but would probably be the nicest to drive, being more responsive.

Thoughts?
On a stock block is where you want to prevent the violent torque spikes of the smaller stock frame turbos. If your tuner, which I would go with who I mentioned earlier, can keep peak torque around 4,500 RPM, then you will be more than safe. That said, the EF4 or FP Black can achieve those numbers on pump without all of the required supporting parts. If you are wanting to run pump gas and achieve those power numbers, throw the talk of the 20G out of the equation. The absolute smallest you should be looking at is either the EF3 or FP Red, my friend. If you want room to grow, the EF4 or FP Black.

I'm ordering one for my JDM Evo 7 (same as an 8) stock block with Kelford 272, ID1000 injectors, 255LPH pump, large intercooler/piping and 3" TBE/O2 etc..

Expecting 450 WHP on pump at 28-29PSI and 500+ with Meth 32-24psi.

Seen any Dyno results for an EF4 ?
Ef4 you will never have to upgrade turbos unless you want to go mongo huge, that is one reason. Idk if you have e85 out where your at being you didn't mention it, but I would worry about running out of fuel. The ef3 is a monster and will out flow those injectors and fuel pump easy. My ef4 did pretty fast and I needed more fuel, but also was on e85 at the time. Meth really isnt gonna get you as much umph as you think. I mean its great to have being I run it, but I don't think you will get 50 more whp with it. Idk it also depends on what jet your running and all. A good meth kit will not run you a 1000 dollars. Use yellow bottle heet. That is 99% meth and is prob the best to run with a 50/50 mix and there only like 2.50 a bottle come summer time.

E85? **We WISH** in New Zealand. The best we have 98 Octane which NZ Speedtech advise is same as your 93 octane approx.

Thats why heat/detonation will likely be an issue and so Meth would be handy. I thought maybe 50/50 water meth as I know water injection along can drop exh temps by 300-400 degrees alone. Great for keeping stock pistons in shape.

One other thought - You can get a TD06SL2-25G with an 11.5cm housing for same price - approx $1000 nzd landed. I know its cheaper but hell, that sounds like a great deal. 850 CFM (560 BHP). from 4700 RPM it craps all over a 20G from dyno sheets I've looked at.

So a walbro 255 with 1000cc injectors would support an ef4? What about wastegates? Stock or atmospheric, I'm gonna pull the trigger on the ef4 and do it. I'll probably have to drive out to WA to get it tuned again but it sounds like the best choice!!

On pump gas, yes, my friend. The EF4 is pretty fun. It is an internal waste gate turbo. I have a proposition for you via PM.

It will support it the turbo but your not gonna make 500 hp on pump gas. With this turbo a single walbro will work ok but if your planning on running e85 then I would get that first. In my opinion on pump gas with a single walbro, 1000cc injectors will make you some ok power but if 500 is your goal then I would go larger injectors. The ef4 also comes with the 25psi wg so you should be all set.

I agree and if you run 91-octane with a single Walbro, you will be around the 410-425whp range safely. If he wants 500whp+, then 1450s and a double pumper is the only legitimate route.

Is a double pumper the only way or have those bigger walbro pumps been tested out any?

With proper setup the walbro 400 will make about 650 whp. I was gonna go with one of those myself, but with building my motor soon I would run out of pump yet again so double pumper was the way to go for me. If e85 isn't available it will be more then enough to take on what you need.

OK, so your goal is to make 500whp on 91-octane, right? Well, that is going to be tough and I would say impossible with even the EF4 (which is larger than the FP Black). I could only squeeze a safe 405whp with the quality of 91-octane we have here in southern Arizona. With a better quality, 420-430whp would be the limit.
