The Borg-Warner EFR6258 is just about the ultimate turbo for a Mazda MX-5, featuring some of the latest and greatest technology. The team behind the EFR program are motorsports and engineering enthusiasts through and through and this product line existing for motorsport purposes is purely down to their skunkworks team and the drive to make the best product for all motorsport disciplines.

“The First Two Cars to Receive EFR Turbos Were the Author’s Porsche 911 and Fellow Employee Doug Erber’s Mazda Miata. Accelerating our Product Observations Through the Installation Process Was a Key Early Step in the Program, Leading to Mid-Stream Improvements. ”

Able to produce 350bhp with relative ease on a forged 1.8 BP / MX-5 Engine using stock cams on pump fuel (99) thanks to its incredibly efficient turbine wheel high compression engines (10:1) can also be used with relative ease, requiring less boost to make the same power numbers as well as faster spool up.

BOFI Tuning Recommendations / Notes

On an optimized setup, we would expect a maximum BHP of 410-430 at around 26-27psi of boost pressure. You will need an oversized intercooler, an efficient engine with camshafts that can rev out to ~ 7400rpm or so. This turbo has produced around 420BHP on E85 on DynoJet Chassis Dynos, this is around the upper limit of the turbos flow potential.

At circa 18psi on a 10:1 rod block engine, this turbo can make 340-350bhp on a stock head on pump fuel. Mileage may vary depending on intake and exhaust setup. This is right in the meat of the efficiency band of the turbo.
