Default Borg Warner EFR Turbos

Have just been reading up on these and the reviews for the single and twin scroll have been great. Seems to be kicking Garrett's GTX range in the nads!!!

Anyone bolted one to a YB yet?

Not true.
MAD has tried them out & had problems with a broken shaft, apparently one of many in the first batch. MADAde will be fitting one in the near future, basically a 800bhp Turbo that spools like a GT35. They are a leap forward in technology thats for sure & i will follow suit after the development is done on Ades. It is not a direct fit because it is the first ever twin scroll developed with a blank sheet of paper & not a modified single scroll like the GTX.

Thats the one that gave problems still being sorted. Raj runs a BW S300 which works well. I have a BW S400 for sale if anyone is interested.

Are you selling it because they've given you problems or am i getting the wrong end of the stick, as in why aren't you using it?
Was it just the first few that had premature failiures and the issues cured now?
