I've recently started uploading videos of my Turbo RX8 S2

I don't give af about subs / like or whatever, just thought some would like to see what a S2 built with a EFR7163 can do

Here : youtube.com/channel/UCqB0kWY4ZcyzvBAVGQDNfiA

I designed and welded this manifold to low mount the EFR7163

Had originally bought IWG myself, but later concluded the EWG turbine housing setup would be better. It will flow better overall, which you’re going to need with the 0.80 A/R. Was working on custom retrofitting the 1.05 EWG T4 turbine housing from the EFR7064, but then just bailed on the EFR entirely after BW strung me along for several months with “it will ship next week”. Of course now I’m on hold waiting with Garrett

Looks like a Haltech ecu?

Hope you don’t mind that I grabbed some screen shots to post

Videos are reminiscent of 'punchy light beer' guy , who messed with same turbo a few years ago . Is that you ?
Results promising so far. The low hanging pipes an issue ?

Mainly commenting for the sub, but from the photos I have the same question as Brett. Is the oil pan/manifold the low hanging fruit for speed bumps/pot holes?

Should be a fun setup, hope to see it fully tuned, that lean pull in the latest video gave me some hard anxiety!
