    aLmk's 400whp budget build

    The gt30r should make for a much better street car. Like speed said a more useable power and. But vdubkilla uses 35r with a huge ar. He made well over 500 on race gas. He also used it to tear up mustangs from lights in OC. So his car did well on the street too. I guess it's about what you want as the end result. Is this a street car? Or a strip car that's driven on the street sometimes.

    Nice to see someone else who will upgrade from almost the same setup to pretty much the exact same setup.

    This is a street car that I sometimes drag. But fun street driving is number one priority for me at this point.

    A 30r is probably a more accurate turbo for your needs then. My friends putting a 67mm on his rsx. Lol.

    So what're your guys' thoughts on the efr 7670 vs. 7064?

    I like external gates, so I haven't gotten too deep into efr turbos. But I will look into them for you and respond.

    P.s. now you have a reason to make an informational article about EFR turbos and why they're so innovative!

    I really like the price point. A full-race efr kit is less than $3800 with everything needed for the kit (not including fueling and tuning, which I already have) which is a steal! I think I like external gate more too (can't say for sure, because never had it) but there are things about internal that I do like, plus with their dual port wastegate actuator I can use the 4 port solenoid I bought and should be able to run low boost in 1st and 2nd and high boost in other gears. The 7670 is supposed to spool somewhere between the GT30 and GT35 but flows more lbs/min than the GT35 by I think 2 and the 7064 I think flows the same or slightly more than the GT30 but will spool faster. They are rated at 650hp and 550hp respectively.

    How come? All the fab work involved depending on the turbo u go with?

    No there would be no fab work because I'd get the full race kit. If anything that's the only plus is that I'd have a kit that definitely fits without modification. Basically it's that the turbos are not that great mostly over hyped and a GTX3076 would be a MUCH better turbo for me and the external gate would also be loads better even though I would have gotten full race's dual port actuator.
