I have the S256ET on it. Thats what ruined my stock engine. I'm waiting on ZZP to ship it to me before I can break it in and start making power. I'll be making the same power and more but my spool up won't be as aggressive where you have the efr, plus I'll be running cams.

you're defiantly gonna need a good tire for the street lol. I would like the MT 245/40/18 so i could run factory wheels but that new M&H will have more sidewall and more give but will look like **** lol.

Yeah, lol. I was having issues with traction with the kdw2s and stock turbo but I later found my camber is way off or my control arm bushings are shot. Both of my front tires are wearing bad on the inside. I am on pedders coilovers so I'm hoping an alignment will fix it just due to the hassle of changing out the stock bushings for the powell ones. I would most definitely run those street radials you mentioned, just only on the weekend.
