S252et question

Trying to make up my mind on the turbo I want. I'm starting lean towards the 252, but for LNF should I go with the .55 ar or .70? Someone told me smaller is better for the LNF but I'd like to get more opinions. And what's the difference between vband and 5 bolt?

i would go with the .55 housing. unless you have an engine capable of high rpm and a large amount of power. you won't be able to take advantage of a .70. and the powerband you'll see with a 252 .55 will be absolutely amazing.

5 bolt vs vband is just that. downpipe connected via vband, or bolts.

x2 it will spool much later with the 70 but will make more hp. The 55 ar is more than capable for the power 90% of people need. The 55ar is stainless and the 70ar is not also
