As silly as it sounds for me to say this after a lot of discussion BUT stick the S475 on and get it running and then you can see how it works because that turbo will make all the power you want

Only thing is the boost response as in the spool up will be very lazy maybe, which means torque will be less however on a track I cant see you being below 5000 rpm but I would say once that turbo gets going it will pull hard for sure.

Bigger turbos shift more air regardless of the amount of psi. Partly why you can see bigger turbos or a turbo with a bigger rear housing making more hp for the same psi as a smaller one.

The amount I know about turbos is just a hairs worth of the info available.

Tuning a turbo for specific goals is like tuning an engine with regards to cam specs, and valves lol


As regards for running twin turbos, if I had the cash I'd run 2 of those new g series 35 660 just because it would look mint

And would sound even better brapoing away because of zero contamination between exhaust pulse sound waves

That’s funny
It’s a conversation Grayo and I had earlier
I think I need to concentrate on the engine that’s in the car not the Cosmo one on the bench . The turbo came with the Cosmo so it’s clearly not right for the one It  as both inlet and exhaust ports are much bigger on the cosmo
And trying to marry a turbo for both is going to be hard or nearly impossible
a bit like measuring boobs
Like trying to get a a bra to fit a pair of medium then rather large ones
It’s never going to fit both I guess ...

So ....
that’s my thinking
Always welcome to others opinion
Please

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

The turbine housing may be a limiting factor on the paek hp from what I understand. A bigger rear housing will move the power band up but should give more hp

Yep so plenty of room
Am also able to use the RX8 oil filter housing  now ( with a bit of modification ) so don’t have to batter the firewall on that location . Can slide my arm  under the UIM and undo now it’s gone
Just messaging on FDUK and there a lad from RX8OC on there saying he runsthe IWG Borg Warner EFR 8374 it’s it’s good for 500 on his 7.   
Don’t know how drivable it is
Ha ha
It’ll be next year before i know what to use

Alright bud did you get the excessive lower inlet manifold and the fuel rail with the 4 Injector ports on? If so could you measure the centres of all 4 or take a picture with a tape measure laid down the length please
