E93 335i Vishnu Turbo upgrade 58mm vs 62mm

Hi everyone!
I am choosing between the 58MM and 62MM single turbo upgrade from Vishnu. Can you please give me your thoughts on which one I should go with and Why.

Thanks

58 is too small. 62 for sure. Still spools fast and just more up top power

I believe Motiv and FFTEC are the most widely used single turbo kits for our platform now

The 58mm turbo was only good back when tuning a single turbo was still relatively new. Now we have much better tunes available and the 6266 was revised last year so I'd go with the 62 for sure.

Go with the 6466 if you are manual! 6266 if you are auto.

And go to fftec that is the kit you are looking at.

I recommend the VM kit. It is 100% complete and I prefer the top mount (easy of access, looks amazing).
