If you get the 5862, I would go for the T4 twinscroll hotside. Otherwise the gen2 5558 looks promising.

letsgetthisdone is right, I acquired this kit before the Gen 2 turbos where out.
If they where I probably would have gone with the 5558 Gen 2. If the Gen 2 5862 spools the same as my current 5858 I would get that but I have had a hard time finding much about the Gen 2's yet.
If I can't get my damn turbo to stop smoking I might go with a Gen 2 afterall...

Gen 2 only represents the new compressor wheel, the internals are the same. The turbo still smokes??

It's going to be a pain in the *** to change and it if it doesn't stop the smoking then obviously the turbo needs to come off.

From what I understand the gen 2 turbos have a broader power range. From what users and reps are saying a 5862 should spool like a 5858 and make more power. I haven't heard anyone dispute these claims although I'm skeptical myself. Coming from a EF4 I expect to see more pleasing results regardless.
