I absolutely can!!

Look what I found - Kinugawa Borgwarner EFR Turbine Housing EFR-6758 0.85 https://a.co/d/isZi6AJ Would that be a good compromise? Staying with the EFR-6758 but switching to a 0.85 hot side? Has the added benefit of switching to a Vband on the manifold side and retaining the internal WG.

Daaammmmnnnnn that's so noice 🥰 That'd cost me a small fortune to build locally. I'm mostly getting "off the shelve" stuff from places like Yoshifab, ClassicSwede, KSR, MKM, KL etc. I realize that some of the more exotic stuff needs to be hunted for more thoroughly but I need to put a cap on the...

I have an option to by a basically new EFR-7163-0.80-WG from a local guy for 1.3K USD. It has done under 2K miles on an Audi rs3. Buying a new one, with a bigger turbine, will set me back twice that amount due to shipping and crazy 50%-60% local customs. That's why I'm pretty limited in my...

It's a 945 with a 960 facelift and doors. Skoda VRS front seats and full interior.

Not very strong on pictures and documenting the build. Have some potato shots, not very fresh though - https://i.ibb.co/Gs8MXCc/IMG-20240109-WA0116.jpg https://i.ibb.co/TYPFmF9/IMG-20240109-WA0115.jpg https://i.ibb.co/smYHFfT/IMG-20230710-WA0065.jpg...

Also, double checked with my tuner. Apparently in this ^^^ Dyno run there was 24deg advance at peak HP. Here is the ignition table - https://i.ibb.co/6RytWQS/IMG-20240109-WA0071.jpg For this Dyno graph - https://i.ibb.co/nMrb7Rh/1996-Volvo-940-2-3-T.jpg

I tried to make full sense of that'll calculator but TBH I must be missing some theoretical background to fully understand all of it. Would that turbo, be a better fit? https://i.ibb.co/rvbdyRD/Long-image-01-09-2024-16-57.jpg It's a EFR-7163-0.80-WG. It's a twin scroll. So I guess I'll have...

The turbo is declared to be 500hp capable by BorgWarner. The car is a drift/weekend car and I like the low end agility more than the absolute top end power. Eventually will drop in a set of Yoshifab's H-beams and hopefully turn it up to around 380-400whp with AEM water/ methanol injection - on...

Thank you for the tip. I was thinking about a cutout after the downpipe. But really likely need a normal 3" exhaust that'll also sound better than the OBX. I'm waiting for a pair of reground Camshafts from Yoshifab. Will go to a full 3" exhaust when these arrive and go re-tune the car.

Here's a short Dyno pull shot with my handheld potato

That sounds like a solid plan. I'll take it to my tuner. I'll gladly post my setup details a little later today.

Oh wow... I'm at 370lb/ft at 3800-3900 rpm. That's right there on the edge. Thank you for the figures. I'll dial it down a notch torque wise.

Okay so the forum search does reveal numbers but I'm not sure if the numbers kicked around are crank or wheel. When people say 320ish - is that at the wheel?
