I don't even have an Evo yet but I'm already planning my mods for when I do get one, and I am trying to pick the best turbo for DD and maybe occasional track days. Any opinions? I figured these two would be the best as from what I hear they spool the fastest. I don't need a huge turbo. I would be ecstatic to make 400 WHP.

Edit: Oops, this was supposed to be in the Evo X section. IS there a way to delete this or get a mod to move it?

 

Moved...and I think my dyno results thread should interest you I originally bought a Green but then decided to sell it in favor of the EF2.

Yeah, Kracka you have the ideal DD setup. I'm leaning more toward the EF2 when I upgrade my turbo. I want to be around the 400 mark; ideally I'd like to be slightly over that mark but dont want give up the quicker spool for a larger turbo.

 

Add a tubular exhaust manifold and/or cams to my setup and you'll be well past the 400 even mark.

 

haha well there you go. Thanks man. Not looking to do this anytime soon, but definitely sometime in the future. How you liking the turbo now? how many miles you have on it?

 

Still loving it, and probably around 3,500 miles so far!

 

Nice man, I bet its awesome. Your build is definitely one the OP should look at for reference!

 

Great build! I plan on keeping this car for awhile (5ish years probably), will I run into problems running that kind of whp?

 

Is there a flow rating on this turbo. If BBK is 51 lbs/min and FP GRENN is 54 lbs/min so where does EF2 fits in, looking to upgrade myself soon

 

No flow numbers I'm afraid, we will have to go off of dyno figures for now.

 

Im going have to jump on that too.

 

You shouldn't as long as you use a competent tuner. I have no doubts my car will make it well past 100k miles without any serious issues. The only things I'm planning on needing between then and now are fluids, brakes, tires, clutch, and a serpentine belt (all normal wear & tear items).

 

the BBK is an evo IX turbo-

BBX lite and full are evo X

flow can be calculated off of hp/airflow/tq/psi-

our lite is about 51lbs min, full 56ish-

anyone have the max g's/sec or load values they've seen in a log w/ their EF2 or EF3 on the X?
