yea im leaning towards it right now...
charge pipes would be easier to run since the turbo hot side is positioned down and not up like the 256.
and why run it lean?

i dont mind some lag, that would actually help out at the drags.
im actually leaning a lil more towards the 5557 right now.

oh and before i forget, my friend and i are throwing a party tonite at his house up in horizon if anyone wants to go.
text me for directions, if you dont have my number pm me.
I say go for the 5557 with meth injection. You got 2 step with WOT?

turbo doesnt give out so much more power.
it all depends on what turbo you go with, you can get a smaller turbo and make alot of peak power but once it hits high rpms its gonna fall right on its face and lose its efficiency.
Its like the KO4 that comes in the ss/tc, makes pretty good peak power but once it hits those high rpms it drops off.

well stock ss/tc's you can achieve that with the m62 on a 2.8.
you wanting to beat modded tc's would have to require you to pulley down maybe to a 2.6 and meth injection for sure since we can get e85 around here.
just get a single pass, griffin HE, meth, 2.6, full exhaust, intake and youll definitely be making some good power.

All that plus a built bottom end, a 2.2 will not hold over 260hp very long. anything below a 2.8 i would build the block.

Going straight to TVS would require a built block.

Charlie where can we get e85?

depends...
what kind of turbo would you be looking to run?
what type of manifold, intercooler, intake manifold etc. are you gonna run?

just to give you an idea my turbo **** is gonna cost me somewhere around 3500-4000.
a used m62 setup would probably cost you around 1000-1500
