s256ET VS. s259ET-.70AR READY GO!
I have everything I need for the turbo swap on my LNF besides the turbo, but only because I can't decide... My goal is to make 400-425 whp, without maxing out the turbo. The reason I am thinking a 70AR is because I want the power to be as useable as possible. I am trying to avoid tire fire from 2500rpm and up. I just need some advice on which way to go! thanks in advance guys.

I believe you can get a billet wheel for the s259 so it would probably spool as fast or faster than the s256. I used to have the s256et and it was my favorite turbo out of all the ones I've had.

The S256ET can put down upwards of 550whp efficiently. I think ZZP has put down over 600 with it though. Thats the .55 exhaust a/r as well. I'd stick with the smaller exhaust since you have an LNF. We can only rev to around 7500 before the cam phasers stop working.

If I wanted about 450-500whp now while on stock motor(lnf) with cams/springs, BUT want to be able to hit 600-650whp later after motor build ect, would the s256et .55 be able to hit over 600whp with build motor ect or should I look into a s259et .55 so I can have that power available later on when I am built. Basically, pros vs cons of 256 vs 259.
