BorgWarner Aluminum B2 EFR 8474 Turbo 68mm Ball Bearing + T4 Divided .

B2 EFR Turbo

The "B2" housing in the BorgWarner EFR turbocharger lineup is specifically engineered for larger turbine wheels and high-power applications, distinguishing it from smaller housings such as the "A" series. Its increased size allows for greater airflow and higher power potential, making it ideal for demanding, high-horsepower setups.

Designed to accommodate larger engines and higher boost requirements, the EFR B2 series turbos are optimized for applications where maximizing performance and airflow is critical. For those seeking a turbocharger capable of supporting a high-power engine, the EFR B2 housing offers the capacity and efficiency necessary for superior results.

BorgWarner EFR 8474 Turbocharger Overview

The EFR 8474 from BorgWarner Turbo Systems represents a pinnacle in high-performance, race-focused turbocharger technology. Engineered for applications requiring 500–800+ horsepower, it delivers exceptional response, a broad powerband, and unmatched reliability. With a proven track record, including consecutive victories in the Pike's Peak Unlimited class, the EFR 8474 is a premier choice for competitive motorsport and high-performance street builds.

Innovative Design for Peak Performance

The EFR 8474 features an 84mm compressor wheel with lower inertia than its 83mm predecessor, ensuring rapid spool times and impressive top-end airflow. The extended-tip compressor wheel design and optimized efficiency plateaus allow for higher pressure ratios and increased performance throughout the powerband. Combined with the lightweight 74mm Gamma-Ti (titanium aluminide) turbine wheel, this turbo achieves a 22% increase in airflow compared to its predecessor, with a maximum flow rate of 95 lb/min at 127,000 RPM shaft speed.

To further enhance its adaptability, the EFR 8474 is available in four turbine housing configurations to suit a variety of applications:

1. 0.83 A/R T3 Undivided (Internal WG) (#12741008000)
2. 0.92 A/R T4 Twin Scroll (Internal WG) (#12741008001)
3. 1.05 A/R T4 Twin Scroll (External WG) (#12741019002)
4. 1.45 A/R T4 Twin Scroll (External WG) (#12741008003)
