Just so people can see some Supra results and a lot of heated discussions related to the EFR and twin scroll.

At this moment that's a ten page thread.
Could you summarize the results?

No testing has been done yet.

They're testing a PTE6266 versus a 8374EFR both twin scroll turbine housings and they're doing both on an HKS style divided manifold/single gate as well as a true divided manifold/ twin gate Full-Race manifold.

I spend pretty much all of page 9 and 10 trying to convince them to do transient response testing.

early june the compressor outlet v-bands for the 8374 and 9180 are going to be available. after enough whining and crying to borg warner, a distributor will be making the flanges.

On a note that might be more immediate to some, has anyone had any update about whether the 9180s are still on target to be available June-July as was the case last time I inquired roughly 6 months ago? Is another delay on the horizon or does production seem to be going according to plan?

n2oiroc. That's a REALLY hard bend coming out of your turbine. also isnt the wideband supposed to be at least 6 inches from the turbine. something about false readings or shortening the life of the sensor

youre right, the bend is horrific and im making a new downpipe. as far as the wideband, it will go farther downstream, but not much. i have had good luck with them fairly close to the turbine wheel (6-8"). if its too far away then closed loop idle fluctuates more and the sensor reacts slower.

Damnn! I just saw your PM, I replied to your email. BTW. Which wideband are you using?


Thanks.
