Lag doesn't really matter I'll get the trap speed from the spool go big or go home, but I could be completely wrong. I don't have any experience with turbos only cubic inches.

You have to hook the car up along with making the power.. Hooking up and hitting a 10s pass with a 5858 is far easier than a 6262...
I have a 6266 on the street if I roll on the gas I can fog the tires all the way to 4th gear. That's cruising at 2k and rolling on the gas at 4k I'm up in smoke...
I bolted the slicks on it the other day and went for a cruise 3rd gear broke loose mid way. You won't have these problem with a 5858. If your spinning your not winning. A 5858 is much more controllable and way easier to put the power to the ground. Oh and by the way I was on a 7psi wastegate spring...
Ultimately the choice is yours, but if I wanted to do what you want to do I would hands down get a 5858. A 10s pass is no joke.
Now with this being said a 6262 with the smallest housing will be equivalent to a 5858 but you will loose top end choking it down. That's why I would suggest the 5858 you will get the best of both worlds.
