EFR actually stands for "Earth Friendly Racing" as strange as that sounds.
I didn't know Treadstone was considering this, but it does make sense.
This turbo should not cost $3k, but we won't know until we get further along with the project.

Which turbo is this based off of? The 7064? 6758? Will you be making different variants based off the other models?
Im really hoping this comes in around the $2000 area. Id have a hard time dishing out more than that for one piece of hardware, not saying its not worth it. Just sticker shock I guess hehe

to be fair the stock highrise does actually have a function of stabilizing the car lol
well i think the MSRP for the EFR turbos are about 2500 so i would say it's safe to say the whole setup will be at least 2500 unless zzp can get some real good deals

I was looking into a similar EFR bolt on option from them.... was about 1800-1900 for the turbo!

wait wait wait...
So.... I have all these mods in my sig and ZZP is saying I can add this bolt on Turbo without spending $2500 on their turbo kit?
Am I following correctly?

Also, Colorado only has 91 Octane. Because our altitude our fuel grades are 85, 87 and 91 octane. That's the highest grade so how will this effect numbers?
I don't want to sound like a dick, but probably will by saying this- This turbo is WAY out of the league of what they are offering. Their setup simply squeezes slightly larger wheels into the factory turbo. Gains are possible, but minimal. Our turbo is capable of 150whp gains over the stock turbo.
To those of you comparing this to the BNR turbo, they are not comparable.
I have $1500 total in the BNR GT2871, a Tial Q BOV and re-tune.
BNR2871 is probably good for around 375-425 whp, depending on tuning and supporting mods.
The ZZP EFR upgrade is gonna be a expensive upgrade, and rightfully so as its a full bolt on 475 whp + upgrade on 93 octane.
Most powerful turbo upgrade available when its released and its a full bolt on to boot.
Now if this turbo runs $2,000 dollars my feelings might be hurt, at $2.5k + they won't be because they got what they paid for (475-500 whp turbo) and I got what I paid for (375-425whp turbo)
Its great to see that development for the LNF platform is still advancing forward.

But if it's more than double the price of the BNR, I'll stick with my original plan and get the BNR.
