depends on ur power goals, 256et seems to be the most powerful and can provide a broad range of power. others with the kit would better be able to explain though.

The extended tip turbos halve a surge ported compressor housing. Also The extended tip is supposed to flow more air without sacrificing spool time.

Rods and pistons are the basics. But if you want to rev higher you have to do head work and neutral/delete balance shafts. Good idea to do rod and main bearings too. Crank and block are good for your goals.

on the trans idk. 5>4

unless you have money to quickly rebuild your engine after buying a turbo kit, i would suggest buying internals and do some head work first. i did the opposite and it killed me financially

I would recommend the 252ext. The 252ext turbo would respond very fast on your 2.2. Since you don't have a lot of room in terms of hp before you reach your engines limit, this turbo is a great match for what you have. Good low, mid, and top end pull=great powerband=winning races.

they are just BOV, they will just blow air the sound is not that loud.
i have tial q and you can hear it inside the car, but i dont think it goes outside the engine bay lol

you could just save alot of money, buy the built engine from zzp and the turbo kit, and bam you are set
of course..... handling have to be upgrade too..... pads, rotors, maybe lines, etc etc etc unless you want to be fast and have no way to stop quick...
