Note to all. Finally moved my cam gears on the dyno. Spent 4 hours there yesterday (on a dynocomm inertial - which will soon be eddy brake). I now see what a V-cam would do for you. Moving my Pon

What's the deal with the turbosmart Bov's to suit EFR? What is the difference between the plumb back and the dual port? It looks like the only thing is the dual port has the option to dump to atmosphere?

V band + 1.45 + coating + some fitting kit. All added up. 

Anyway.... moving on lol

Nice work, this sounds like a mental setup.  Keep us up to date - hope it works out well :)

I ended up with 1.05 as it didnt look like the 1.45 would fit on current mani.

Should be on this week with tune next week or so.

How hard do you plan on pushing this thing, turbine speed wise? 

Not really too sure yet.

It is a stock bottom end after all so i doubt we'll max out the turbo.

I'd like to cap it at 28psi but not sure how much turbine speed that would be.

575kw on JEMs dyno will do me. Should get me 140mph....or an big explosion... either way exciting times ahead!

Do you plan on building this soon? How hard do you rev it? Any other changes apart from the snail? 

Its gonna be interesting to see the difference, especially in the real world.

Still on the factory gearbox?

if anyone needs turbos or speed sensors, we have both in stock and happy to match any prices online.  also we have a new Turbo Speed Gauge that is pre-programmed for EFR turbos:

      I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.

      Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob

      Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
