Interesting comparo Chad, would like to hear more on the set ups as you are basically stating the smaller 7163 made more power than the 7670 with less boost AND less mods > screams of a bottleneck to me. ~360hp from a 7670 seems sub-par

The 7670 was in the high 300's we have been making 400-440 on 93 with the 7163 (even doing this on stock airboxes and piping on some EVO X's)-

I am very curious too- Borg Warner is proving to be an excellent partner for us on these projects- our DBA Shop GTR is going to be running two 6758's EWG on CBRD manifolds and piping- should be a torque monster-

Do tell. I thought APR was VW/Audi stuff. Do you think this piece could be used to fit an EFR into an Evo somehow?
Yes, I must know if you will make some for our application. You have to do this for us! Does APR make these in house?

APR says they will only sell it as part of their full kit (which is not for our cars). Someone needs to step up and make something similar for the Evo. A simple solution that could bolt Garrett & EFR turbos to the stock manifold would be win.

It's not for an Evo... but yeah a cast inconel manifold would be nice for a turbo kit.

so, sorry if it was already covered in the previous 100 pages but i was trying to do some catching up on learning on these turbos for myself today, which led to surfing forums for parts, which led to finding a brand new 7163 for a very nice price...

did tial every release housings? ran across a press release from them saying they were working on them

are housings available for purchase separately if say you wanted to switch to a v band?

duh lol, i know that. it was more a question of if you buy a second hand turbo can you get the housing you need or if you want to swap a/r. treadstone has a page of a few efr hotsides, but i have no idea what fits what....and they aint cheap.

im always trying to save money.

What would be the benefit of running a stock type manifold? Is the MHI flange that much better than a T4 twin scroll?? Cause i thought the t4 flowed more???

Chad you should test the twin scroll versus single scroll before you jig it up! TS rocks socks on the SS.
