Apparently 480 AWKW was the most power out of a 8374 awkw (out of an Evo) Scott has seen on his dyno.

Nick (3.0/8374) went 461, 24 psi

Pete (3.2/vcam/8374) went 457awkw, 25 psi tapering back to 21 psi (120,000 turbine speed).

I don't know. It's all dictated by that magic 127,000 RPM turbine speed. What will be more interesting will be the boost level that it'll need to get there. Going off the -5 setup, it went 441 at 19 psi. Realistically, I should have just left it there.  Boost level I'm gonna peg at no more then 25 psi, tapering back down. 

How does that power compare with Garrets and Precision etc on same dyno? Sounds lower than I would expect but apples with apples

I'd have to ask Scott, Simon. Haven't really asked to be honest. Pete did a back to back between a 6266/0.84 to a 8374/1.05 but the car was pretty ill when it arrived. Having driven that car in both setups, the 8374 belts it for the stuff you can't see on the dyno. Your assume the 6266 with its 0.84 ass end would be stronger down low, that is most definately not the case, let alone the transient stuff. 

If his car was anything to go off, the PTE needed 28 psi to make 460 kw and the EFR needed 21 psi to make 457. *Different dynos though.

A 9180 blows about 550 kw on that dyno for example before it taps out due to speed.

A Gen 2 3582R, PTE 6266 and a 8374 comparison would be awesome. But the fab work involved makes it a very expensive exercise.

Honestly I'd have given a EFR8374 a go if it wasn't for all the fab... Instead I seem to be stuck with the 6262 (not being a bad thing) but now I'm up to 5 sets of cams that have been in the car haha

Latest better be awesome considering I've gone backwards 4 times in some way shape or form

5 sets of cam setups? What are you chasing to warrant 5 different setups? You could have had a EFR setup with change.

I really hope mine spins more than 550, be a fair bit off where I want to be. 

 

That speed "cap" is a pain. 

Owell only one way to find out ?

What happens when you pop a ic pipe at 25psi and over speed them? 

 

Boom? 

I doubt the boom is that inevitable, I'm fairly sure a mate had that exact thing happen on his EFR8374 drift car after he first went to one and he just lost power and his heart sunk because of the stories about overspeeding - but then realised what happened, got it sorted and carried on.  Car is still going strong.

Worth avoiding, obviously - but not necessarily immediate death.  Much the same as how you have people running around with boost leaks all over the place with stock ceramic turbo Nissans who never realised it.  I guess not having the full load on the turbo MAY take some of the edge off?

Lol!  

How is your car going?

Slowly. Motor is almost there I am told then its off for fab work before wiring and then tune.

Maybe July...

You staying with the EFR party?

I've gone a 6870 1.15 rear for now as I wanted over 600awkw. It looks like the 9280 will do the power I want when it is released so I plan on swapping back at that point.

I just wanna go fast

I spose sensor back to ecu, if it falls out of "x" parameters then have some sort of protection in place... whatever that may be.

What am I missing with these EFRs? 

I thought you just took a look at the comp map, aimed for a decent efficiency island for your power goal, as you do with any turbo choice, and that was that?

Can't think of when I've seen people talking about turbine speed so intently with other brands. Are the EFRs particularly sensitive to overspeeding?

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
