Holy crap, so I have wanted an EFR turbo on my LGT for awhile, now I am in the midst of getting a new EB Ford Flex and I find out you all are working on those (kind of) as well...

FR might have some of my money one way or another...

Very impressive. It has characteristics that rival the Dom 1.5 XTR with 10cm housing.

uhh, it will RAPE the Blouch turbo. BW > Blouch. Blouch is right down the road from me and while they make a quality product, it doesn't make peak power even close to what a Borg turbo is capable of.

Nice #'s with a mostly stock set-up OP, however, the pump gas #'s looked incredibly low. Do you think the car is held back by the stock TMIC that much?

Yeah. What is the next step for cooling? Very nice numbers. And in 95 degrees. What is your experience with the TMIC vs FMIC on the 08's. ??

I was merely comparing spool characteristics as it spools nearly identical. The EFR line up I'm sure is far better engineered. I plan on using one myself.

I don't disagree. I've heard great things about blouch and impressive things about borg setups.... But as of right now it's still all talk.

I have no first hand with a dom 1.5XTR or the fullrace borg kit thats up for 2k... But I'm torn between which one to buy.
Heavily leaning toward this fullrace kit, but cant WAIT till some videos start surfacing...

The FR kit doesn't include the turbo for that price.. I was pretty amazed at their price until I noticed that.

Full race is priced appropriately for what they do plus it is made in the USA compared to all these other Chinese products. I saw their shop in person and all I can say is wow

I'm not complaining at all. I'm just saying I think the price he's comparing doesn't include the turbo. If it did then there isn't much of a debate on what to get

First off I can saw WOW too, this kit looks awesome but...

...I'm looking at the kit online and it looks like $1794.99 gets you an up pipe, a down pipe, and some fittings + oil/coolant line. An up pipe and down pipe that are not even coated or catted? Pay extra on top of almost $1800 for those options?

Please correct me if I'm missing something as I'm just going by the photo on their website but it appears that this is all you get for $1800??

Correct. It's $3600 with turbo. I thought we discussed that ad nauseum in this thread already? $3600 and this is the largest turbo that can fit in that location. So if you ever want more power, you have to go buy another full rotated setup. FR products are for ballers.

You gotta pay to play. If you don't see the value in this kit hand over your keys.

it is not simple to put an EFR in the stock subaru location - doing this properly takes more than meets the eye. Additional components are stiff EFR wastegate actuator, billet BOV, inconel turbo studs, etc. The highest cost from this comes from the downpipe which is handmade one at a time *in the car* to have perfect fitment even on the trans tab.

If you wanted this kit but needed to save a chunk of $$, order it without the downpipe and fab your own or modify an old one

many people prefer not to go rotated and not everyone needs more than 550hp. EFR twinscroll internal gate is a great option for the higher power crowd, but has a more expensive manifold setup obviously

Lol....I fill up with 100oct at $8.50/gal....I don't complain about it....I choose to do it..

I just meant there's a difference between seeing value in a product vice having the coin to buy it.

I've never said no one should buy it or that it sucked. Can't even have a discussion about anything anymore....everyone starts throwing a fit unless you're posting "badass bro"

If everyone wants the fastest spool it looks like killers b's low mount kit is going to take the cake on performance. But it's like $1500 more than this one.

I'm delirious in urgent care right now....so take what I say with a grain of salt lol.
