I assume its just gonna be like a cast 35r wheel just better.
You won't regret it man its a great turbo. What size ar are you planning to run?

Probably the .64 vband setup. I would like to sell my 6466 to fund the 5858, but I just keep getting offers and then I don't hear anything back. Maybe after Christmas it will get a little more interest.

2.4 6262 is a badass street combo. Mine makes 515@22psi. Great street driving characteristics with ACT HDSS. I will probably step up to an XTSS because at approximately 600 mine slipped although the clutch is OLD. Lots of abuse on it. Drives almost like stock and very reliable. I got a cast T3 manifold but if I had done it more recently an FP Manifold with the coming external wastegate O2 housing and an FP Green for under 600hp. FP Black for up to 750.

They tend to under rate the turbos. Mikey made 750 and 2 others have topped 700. With the better turbine housing they are working on and the external wastegate it should be able to make more power. Stock turbine housing record is 719whp I believe.
