Too lazy to look. What turbo are you going to use?

Last I heard a cxracing 2871 turbo "kit"

You're fine. I'm using normal ARP head studs. I was just playing around.

IMHO the tater doesn't add enough power over the 2560 to be worth the significant hit in spool. If you want more power than 2560 levels from a Garrett, I would (and did) go with a GTX286x. EFR supposed to be an even better choice, but that's got more significant implications for the rest of the kit.

2860 with a good exhaust housing doesn't give up much hit in spool and does make more power. Whether it's enough of a jump in power to justify paying for a Tial housing remains to be seen.

Gross.

Why not a efr 6258 with a kraken manifold and 3" downpipe?

Best budget baller setup on the market

I’ll look into it, never tried EFR turbos before.

How many people in your research on this site have suggested the setup that you're talking about?

This is a continual cycle.

You find something that sucks, claiming you researched. Get called out, given other options. You then come back with something else that nobody in history has ever recommended.

The cycle repeats. It's awful. Break the cycle.

Forget ewg, they are stupid and just complicate the exhaust routing. With the efr 6258 there are no boost creep issues.

This is exactly what I am running, for the cost. There is No better setup

$850 kraken cast manifold, 3" Downpipe and oil lines/fittings
$1260 brand new efr 6258 turbo - iwg, has integrated Bov and ebc, so no need to buy those separately.

This turbo is a spool monster and proven to handle up to 425whp on a miata.

Light years ahead of the disco potato 2860 spool and power wise

holy crap, we just went from a potato to an EFR. Good choice.

Since you don't know a GTX from a GT, it should be noted that a potato is not a GTX. There's about a 15-year technology gap between the two.

And the EFR is even better than the GTX.
