Default Not Mine: 2 INDYCAR EFR6758 turbos $450 each

A friend posted this on the Indiana Miata Owners facebook group. That's all I know about those turbos.

Can you post up the text for those of us who don't use facebook?

Have a friend with a few indy motors and turbo manifolds but no turbos. He may be interested.

The price is too good to be true? Caveat emptor?

Looks like it's the same as that Ebay ad.

Hmmm, full-race has pictures of both 6 and 7 bladed compressors. BorgWarner EFR 6758 Turbo - Full-Race.com The picture they show for the T4 .80 has 6 blades. Or maybe the INDYCAR ones are different. I don't know.

The speed sensor is powered by a +5V supply, and the return signal is a
variable frequency square wave that has maximum amplitude of 5V and
has a 50% duty cycle. The frequency of this signal depends on the
speed of the wheel. Each passing blade creates a pulse, and all the EFR
wheels have 14 blades except for the 67mm (which has 12 blades).
The
sensor embedded electronics divides the blade-pass frequency by 8, and
then the resulting count forms the output waveform. Here is an
example:
Well apparently I'm wrong and its the other way. 6758 has 6 blades (well, 6 visible and 6 shorter ones so 12) and the rest have 7 (or actually 14)
