That just happened.

I was told by someone here that once you go T3, pick the smallest turbo you need to hit your goal and you will be happy with the powerband/spool.

I've seen the 5858 first hand and on a 2.0L its a bad mother, but I think on a 2.4 assuming it can keep up with the motor up top, I guess cams, head, smim come into that it will be awesome. It did 510 thru an auto at 32psi spike just to see how much the injectors would keep up. I know if that was a 5 spd car it would do 570whp DJ all day. That's shitty cams, FMIC and stock intake.

god damn that pic is awesome!

Ill probably go with the 5862 BB this will all be with a 280/280 ported head, SMIM, ETS race FMIC (short route), and side exit exhaust.

Im hoping flow will not be an issue with the setup

I got to say I'm scared to make the purchase on one, because I don't want to buy 2 new turbos. I have a lead on a temp manifold for mine...

Also I'd get the 5858 over the 5862, something about mismatched wheels rubs me the wrong way.

I didn't realize that 62 is a cea wheel, i know the 58 is. My vote is the 5858 and sacrifice a possible 20whp. (going off PTEs ratings)

**CornFed2.4** · 06-12-2012

yeah but people are haveing success with the 6266 there mismatched so i dont think it would be a big deal.

Yeah the 5862 does have the new wheel

turbotalon1g · 06-12-2012

Oh the 6266 is fucking fantastic don't get me wrong, and its 80% for sure what i'm going with on a stroker, but the results from the 5858 are tremendous.

The 5858(no CEA turbine) and 5862(CEA compressor & turbine) both have the new wheel. My point was balanced turbos seem to do the best that is all.
I don't know if you mentioned and i'm sure you did, but is it T3? I'm thinking of doing T4.

Where have you seen this? All of the research I have done shows that the 58 turbine wheels are not billet. The 5862 is a full CEA, but the 5858 has a cast turbine wheel from what I have found. If the 5858 is now full billet, then that is the perfect turbo for what I am looking at.

**CornFed2.4** · 06-12-2012

Yeap the mani I bought is a t3 and going with a t3 4" SP IN .82A/R 3" vband out.

I get what your saying about having balance wheels though

turbotalon1g · 06-13-2012

I just looked at their site, it is not.

I was told by someone that the 5858 has the cea wheel in it. weird because it used to be a 5857, i wonder how much that 1mm made a diff.

**CornFed2.4** · 06-14-2012

Jet I think the 5557 has CEA wheels. At least that's what the STM site shows.

**JET** · 06-15-2012

The 57 turbine wheel is not CEA either. The smallest they have so far that I have seen is the 62. I am a bit shocked they aren't making a smaller one for all the honda guys.

**CornFed2.4** · 06-15-2012

This is the turbo I was talking about.

Says it's the new cea tech.

**CornFed2.4** · 06-24-2012

Yeap.

turbotalon1g · 06-24-2012

How's this coming?

**CornFed2.4** · 06-24-2012

All the stuff is at gosh. Should be a couple weeks yet till it's done. He had the parts since last Monday.
