That EFR had *slightly* better throttle response and torque at 3,000rpm vs. a 1st gen GT3582R turbocharger.
Would it be better than a twin-scroll Gen2 GTX3282R? Probably not.
Better than a new G-series? Even less likely -- but difficult to compare, as most of the G-series turbine housings are v-band inlet and therefore not totally conducive to conventional 930 headers.
I don't know what you mean by "Bullets" turbocharger.
While the EFR made for a very tidy installation -- integrated wastegate in the twin-scroll housing, integrated BOV -- you have to consider that the turbine housing is much longer, and therefore the standard aftermarket headers do not work because of the turbine inlet flange position (left-right, angle). And a wholly custom muffler is required, or in this case, a custom dump pipe.

Thanks, and no, this would not. It was custom made for this turbocharger on this car.
