Any of your customers ran quicker or slower times on the quarter Mark after switching turbos to an efr?
As Mark said that's all he's sold these past 5 years and I know cossies are not as common anymore it's just I'm yet to see any deliver good performance or stats compared to the 'old' technology....
Anyone out there know/experienced different??
Anyone using an efr on level 8 or P8??

Cheers Paul
Surely the fact they are praising them tells you their performance is better ?

And as I said, given the 1/4 mile is probably the worst "performance" test ever for an EFR, why would you think a result would change because of one ? Given it's virtually full throttle the entire way. There is almost no reason for a similar powered car to go faster because of an EFR vs a different turbo.

Now if you're simply comparing an EFR turbo car that makes more power, to a car with an alternative turbo that made less power...well that again isnt even a comparable test. They're just different so results will be different.

A car with 700+ should be trapping in the 140+ range. Whilst ET's arent always a great indicator, 13.7 is poor for that sort of power.
