EFR 8374

http://www.dieselpowerproducts.com/p-8764-borgwarner-efr-8374-turbocharger.aspx Supprised I haven't heard of anyone trying one yet, not totally unreasonable at around 2000 bucks. 79 lbs a minute out of a 62.

OK......................I seriously considered running one of these turbos.

After they are properly set up..........it should be the absolute bee's knees.

The ONLY reason i shyed away from it is because 1 of 2 reasons.

1: I heard rumors from a number of sources that they had issues with the turbine wheels shearing off (whether that's true or not........I don't know)

2: The cost is pretty ridiculous when on considers that they are not a bolt on turbo, they are in fact far from it.



Besides that...... I would love to see one set up on a 1st gen truck.

If you click on the "efr & diesel" link on that link I posted, they are claiming 1200 hp capability with 3 parallel 6258's, with instant spoolup and more power at 20 psi than a 900 hp twin setup running 70 to 100 psi. That I'd have to see to believe. Doesn't seem to be much happening with them on diesels that I've heard of..

Ya, it's all theory............pretty sure that truck has never been on the street.

They are a pretty cool turbo. The gamma-ti turbine wheel is 50% lighter, which should make it crazy on spool up. Their wastegated versions also can flow 40% past the non-wastegated versions, which is huge. Saves about $800+ on an external gate. I've been after a 67mm forever, but it seems like nobody has em, or wants to give me one to test

Edit: as for the triple turbo truck...show me the dyno graphs!

What about this turbo isnt bolt up, im sure the down pipe will need to be altered and the oil line might need to be changed but aside from that what else would need to be changed? Im looking to install this turbo on my truck soon and am wondering if im missing somthing here
