I explained it in the video. The 8374 is the smallest turbo so no real lag, along with it being a proper ball bearing EFR turbo so less lag than other aftermarket options and basically the best transient response in the market. I am also limited by my fuel pump and clutch currently. A simple turbo swap in the future can support 1000hp when I'm ready to go that far.

Nice setup man very jelly haha. I find it interesting that DocRace gives you the options for the big EFR turbos except for the 8474. From what I read it only spools slightly slower if any than the 8374 but probably makes an additional 100whp.

Looks like this would ultimately be rather easy to work on. I'm curious to how well it holds up to heat soak because they just cram this tiny filter on the front of the turbo with no heat shielding. You gonna get a turbo blanket for it too?

ceramic coating to insulate heat in the runners and downpipe. The goal is to reduce engine bay temps with the turbo mounted up above the cylinder head/valve cover. |
