However, the real advantage to EFR's is the Ti-Al turbine, that's one thing Garrett can't touch.
Gtx turbos are great. But fact is that they're just not as light as the EFR wheels. Response really is night and day difference. I was skeptic when Geoff from full race told me about the EFR's...but after seeing dyno vids and charts with back to back differences... it really is night and day.
