Are they available for 996/997? Who’s got the latest news and what are your thoughts on these? Any of the 6speeder tuners getting involved?

Full-Race has EFR turbo kits for 996tt and 997tt in development now, ready for production in Q2 2012. There will be some updates on the Full-Race.com website towards the end of this month, feel free to email me at geoff[at]full-race[dot]com with any questions or if you would like to see photos

am interested as well. supposedly flows more air, less heat, faster spool than HTA's; better materials etc.

Looks like a pretty nice setup but I just checked the FR site and didn't see a kit listed for a 996TT. There were various parts available, but no full kit.

I think itguy is using them in his build. Not sure if they've gotten to that point yet though.

Why not just go with a proven FP, Precision or Garrett/TIAL setup?

efr is proven setup on other platforms, dont see why it wouldn't perform for our cars, turbo is turbo..

6758 or 6958 would be great DD performer, just like a gt28 setup

I'm looking at these myself and have been talking to SRM about them. My plan is to see where my turbos end up as they're an old design. If an upgrade is in order these are at the top of my list. Lots to like about them IMO!
