63mm Turbine Inlet:
The 63mm turbine wheel inlet is designed to support high airflow for applications targeting 450-650 HP. The larger inlet allows the turbine to flow more exhaust gas, supporting higher power levels while maintaining good efficiency. This size is ideal for high-performance street cars and track applications.
.85 A/R Ratio:
The .85 A/R (Area/Radius) ratio provides an excellent balance between turbo spool and top-end power. This ratio offers quicker spool than larger A/R housings while still supporting strong top-end power. It's ideal for applications that need responsive boost delivery without sacrificing peak power.
VOF (Vortex Optimized Flow) Design:
BorgWarner's VOF design optimizes exhaust flow through the turbine housing, improving efficiency and reducing turbulence. This advanced design delivers better turbo response, improved power delivery, and reduced backpressure compared to conventional turbine housing designs.
V-Band Inlet:
The V-band inlet provides a secure, leak-free connection between the turbine housing and exhaust manifold or downpipe. V-band connections are superior to traditional flanges because they distribute clamping force evenly around the entire circumference, preventing exhaust leaks even under high boost and extreme temperatures.
Non-Wastegate Design:
This turbine housing does NOT include an integrated wastegate, making it ideal for custom turbo setups using external wastegates. External wastegates provide superior boost control and are essential for high-performance applications. You'll need a wastegate manifold and external wastegate to complete your turbo system.
T4 Flange Compatible:
The turbine housing uses a T4 flange pattern, which is one of the most common turbo flange sizes. This provides universal fitment with most aftermarket turbo manifolds and makes it easy to integrate into custom turbo setups.
Why BorgWarner EFR?

A/R Ratio Selection Guide:
- .85 A/R: Balanced spool and top-end, ideal for street/track applications
- Smaller A/R (.64-.75): Faster spool, less top-end power
- Larger A/R (.92-1.05): Slower spool, more top-end power
Power Support Guide:
The 63mm .85 A/R turbine housing can support approximately:
- 4-Cylinder: 450-550 HP
- 6-Cylinder: 550-650 HP
- Note: Actual power support depends on engine displacement, boost level, and efficiency
Perfect Pairing:
For a complete EFR turbo system, pair this turbine housing with:
- BorgWarner EFR B1 CHRA (center section)
