Real St. is having a huge black friday sale all weekend long. So took the opportunity to pickup a set of Kelford VVTI 202-C cams (similar cam card specs to GSC S1). Almost bought an adjustable cam gear too for degreeing the exhaust cam, but decided against it. Like $98 for a BC or Tomei one, not bad, but decided not to.

Cams came, that was quick!

Well latest purchase. Wise choice, probably not. But I have been so excited to try one of these so I just said Eff it since Geoff @ Full Race gave me a really good deal on it.

This is a new Borg Warner SXE-300 8776. So it's the 64.5mm comp wheel, which can be paired with either the larger (73mm) or smaller (67mm) turbine wheel. I went with the smaller turbine as its actually very similar in size to my current turbine wheel. And if you think of it in PTE terms, this turbo would be called a 6467, so from that perspective it seems like a pretty good combo to me. Plan will be to reuse my current .91AR T4TS turbine housing, but I may switch to a 1.0 T4TS just to see if I'm choking it out.

Geoff said he expects it should spool very similar to my current SX300 8475 (61mm) but obviously have some top end gains.

Plan is to keep the current SX on the car and get it tuned on a good amount of boost (30ish). Run that for a little bit, then maybe in late summer swap this on, and see what kind of difference it makes. And hopefully some dyno sheets to show the difference.

It came packaged very nicely. And just in case I thought this was a big single, they remind you on the box that it is in fact NOT, it is actually a small turbo, make no mistake about it!

Damn, you should let me borrow your "small turbo" :KANE:

[A//// Guy]

Sexy! Cant wait to see this thing rollin soon.

Damn, that looks remarkably close to the turbo my brother just picked up for his rx7. Borgwarner but I can't remember model specifics. Looks like a "bigger" turbo to me lol. Looks nice.

^^ask him what he got. It'd either be an SX, SXE, or EFR

[Dark2g]

You are gonna love that turbo. Personally been really enjoying the Borg efr 7670 I installed on the fd this fall. Spool is so early compared to what I am used!

SXE 366 I want to say

[Halon]

Very nice. That is what I was also strongly considering and almost bought, but decided I just don't need that much power.
