It's been like a month or 2 since it came out so I don't expect any results for months.

I have purchased the 9180 and it will be awhile because the 9180 isn't out yet. They started with the smallest to the largest. They said I should have mine by the second week in April.

Yeah, there is always a range, but the standard is to rate at 10hp per lb/min of airflow.

remember everything rated is for piston motors... you'll have to divide hp ratings by 1.3 to get rotary hp numbers.

I recently saw an EFR turbo installed on a 4-cylinder. The integrated wastegate and boost control solenoid and blowoff valve make for a VERY clean setup, I will try to take some photos next time I see the car.
