You'll feel the weight reduction, definitely worth it.

Hi mate. Great build. Those EFR turbos look spot on. Why did you change the iAbed oil cooler setup back to the oem housing with the adapter plate instead?

Absolutely worth it on those LCA's. So where are we at on the project, I'm dying over here for an update!!


I was planning to get them, I was surprised when my buddy gave it to me. He removed them from his car because it's very stiff for him.

For the project, I am waiting the TurboZentrum kit to be shipped. If they did what they told me then I will be able to receive the kit by first/second week of September.

Thanks mat, I hope those EFR really did what I am expecting.
The piston on the iABED oil cooler plate was not working properly, it stuck while working and oil pressure was really low. So, I decided to move for the OEM setup.
Deleted the balance shafts and it works good so far till now.

I need your advise, I have the "Brembo GT Systems 330x28 1-Piece (Front) 4-Piston" pending to be installed after swapping the forged engine to Rocco...

I found another Brembo 6-Piston kit with 355 rotor and I don't know if I should stick to the GT 330 4-piston or go for the other one?

Pics of the other kits;











Please advise...
