Thanks for the dyno sheet. Are you on the CEA 6262?
I knew that couldn't be right. Thanks for clearing that up. So CEA 6262 vs HTA86 is what I'm trying to decide on.

ok so its still in the air. My friend says to just go precision and that its alot more reliable than the hta86. Does anybody have any input on that? And CEA 6262 vs hta86 is what I'm comparing as far as lag difference and power efficiency on each turbo on a buscher 2.3 stroker
Really? Can you give some details on it? What caused it to fail? Ive honestly never heard about one failing
I mean one turbo out of hundreds is a pretty good record if you ask me
Edit: did a search and found one with a bearing faiure, is this the one your talking about? Bearing faiure can be from a lot of different scenarios, i wouldnt let that sway your decision OP

If this is a hta 3586 vs 6262 only the 3586 wins every time look at what the top vendors say about comparing the 2, they have much more experience with different types of setups. I have ridden in a few cars with the 6262 and its laggy a noticeable difference between the 2. The 6262 is cheaper that is the only part of the the comparison that the 6262 would win. Why would precision redesign the 6262 if it was such a great turbo? I had many choices when doing my build and money was no object I chose the hta.
Theres not a day that i drive my car where i wish i wouldve went with another turbo. I know theres a lot of choices out there and everyone has different opinions on everything, but you wont be sorry chosing the HTA86

That's what I was saying. I've heard of the older precisions failing a while back but not much on the hta86.
Yea that's not going to sway it. Looking for best spool along with my goals and overhead hp just in case I want to go higher.
This is a comparison of the hta86 amd the billet dual bb 6262 Aka 6262 CEA. Not the old 62's. Thanks for your input and experiences. I've tried looking for the cea but there wasn't much In the Dyno section to get an idea from.
Good to know
Lol that's what I told him.

more laggy then the hta 3586, I would say ask DB or AWD or STM they seem to think the 3586 is a better turbo then the 6262 they deal with set ups more often.
I make over 500/500 by 4500 but its not a fair comparison I am on a 2.4. I am impressed with your graph though I have been in 2 6262 2.0 and the car would barely move before 5250-5500.
Still no answer to my question of the 6262 was so great why did they redesign it with the 6266?
Everyone is going to have there opinion I did allot of research before I purchased the hta86 and I bought what I bought this thread could go on forever. 6262 guys will defend what they bought hta guys will defend the hta. This was compared before on evom and posted in by DB and AWD both chose the hta.

the cea 6262 and the old 6262 have the same size wheels correct in the same housing? If so I wouldnt see a huge differfene in spool if the only thing that changed was the center cartridge? There isnt a difference in the FP black and dbb version besides transient responce correct? Same theory? I am asking the question because I can not find much info on the cea version.
