Just got mine a few weeks ago and I love it so far! I have random plastic parts all over my house now lol. Printed some brake ducts yesterday that bolt in as a direct replacement for the fog lights. :thumbsup:
What model did you end up going with?

I went with the Makergear M2. Still learning the effects of the small adjustments and accounting for variances between colors/spools, but overall I'm getting some pretty good prints now.

I really like the tech in the BW compared to the Garrett (Gamma-Ti wheel, ceramic bearings, stainless housing, etc.). The internal gate in the BW still isn't as good as an external gate but it's pretty damn good compared to any other internal gate. Their wastegate port design really is really awesome and if you want to nerd out on specs, design, and materials this is the turbo you pick lol. And there is absolutely no way I could package an externally gated twin scroll in this location. I plan on using a twin port wastegate actuator so hopefully that will help with the control a bit.
I know the BW EFR has all that whiz bang technology. I am assuming you have seen this post:

awesome turbo placement, Have you made a mock up exhaust manifold for it as of yet? Seems like a good area to manage heat really well.

Not yet. I am going pretty slow. This is my DD so I usually end up taking it apart Friday night for measurements and test fitting, etc. Then I have to put it back together on Sunday to drive to work on Monday. I have the waterjet parts for the turbo mounts on order so as soon as I get that welded up and have a permanent mount for the turbo I can work on the header. I have a pretty good idea of what my plan is but I'll wait until I can post some pictures.

I remedied my boost issues with a TurboSmart unit. I HIGHLY recommend picking one up for your EFR. They offer a plumb back (100% recirculation) and a dual port (50/50 recirc/BOV).

The stock rubber diaphragm is really flimsy. This replaces it with a brass piston similar to a true BOV.

Keep posting updates! Stoked for your build man.

Great setup, exactly the way I would build a turbo setup. I'd go for the 7163 though if you are going to keep the car higher compression. :)

Thanks for the info! And glad you got your issues sorted out. Planning on using the TurboSmart Kompact like you as well as the the twin port wastegate actuator (I will have a wide range of boost with flex fuel).

Got some parts in from the water jet today. Got anxious and welded my turbo bracket up right away. :burnrubber: Not perfect but not too shabby for not touching a welder in over a year!

Sorry for the picture overload today. I'm just excited I finally have some real progress to show.
