ZFR vs s256 ( 300 ft, 1/8. & 1/4 )?
I know the s256 is capable of supporting more HP, but I dont know if I will ever mod it that far. So, here is my question
ZFR + fully bolted + tuned + drag radials+ drag bags + stage 4 clutch ( stock cams staying under 7000 rpm )
V.S.
S256 + fully bolted + tuned + drag radials + drag bags + stage 4 clutch ( stock cams staying under 7000 rpm )
I dont care about HP. I care about real world results. So, between those choices which turbo would win in each category?
300ft, 1/8, and 1/4
I might one day upgrade to a ported head and cams combo, upgraded trans, built motor, but you never know what life is going to bring. And if its worth it to put that much power down on a FWD car, or for the same price as moding a RWD muscle car?

I don't think the 256 comes with the crazy wheel, 259 and 262 do. As far as borg warner turbos 259 is where I would stop unless you want a crazy hp build. A 6262 is a better option than the 262 because the inducer is a little bigger and the exducer is smaller by a little helping spool a touch. Also the exhaust wheel is smaller on the 6262. Staying under 7k I would stop at a 256 in all honesty. You can prolly make the same power with a bigger turbo or more power but the curve is going to be worse.

drag radial wont hold. you need slick to put your power down even a S256 or zfr.
my friend has a zfr and MT slick and something in 3th gear, tire get hard time
he has a HHR ss. 12,8 111.

not on our video. but better to get tire pressure right, his tire was spinning in third gear. 17spi was to high
dont forget that hhr has a différant weight distribution
