please see response from Borg Warner for the EFR super core.
“Unfortunately the manufacturing processes sometimes results in parts as shown in the pictures that were provided. Your customer is understandably displeased with the appearance of the compressor cover.
Here is an official statement:
Although aesthetically imperfect, this is a cosmetic issue and will have no effect on the form fit or function of the compressor cover and/or turbocharger
So thats the official statement of BW. Totally unacceptable, when we talk for turbo of that price range, even a chinese crap for 150usd have better housing quality than this 3k$ shit. I am shocked how arrogant are those companies these days, they constantly brings the prices up, quality down and dont care about their customer satisfaction. If we want their crap, we have to live with those kind of bullshits, if we dont like it, they spit on our faces and told us somebody else will buy it. This is my 3rd EFR turbo and for me non of the competition have something to compete with those, but its my last one after this. I had and still have many other high end turbos like GTXs and Owendevelopments Garretts, so no cutting edges on prices and etc, but when i pay for something like that and waited more than 3 months for it, like its some sort of spaceship technology, i want to be with top quality and finish. Even their SX series are better executed, i have had 2 of them too. 🤬🤬🤬
