I'm getting a rash of emails about the KA24 turbo kits I'm working on. Current'y my turbo and wastegate are on backorder. If things persist, I'll simply be switching to a different dealer. However, money has exchanged hands with me and my current dealer, So I'm stuck waiting. I have all of the other parts and pieces waiting to be installed. Its just a matter of time.

Equal length manifolds...my kits currently come with log style mani's. But I will be working on a equal length somtime in the future. It will probably be an added option to the kits if you wish to have the equal length mani instead.

My first goal however, is to have a basic starter kit to build from. I'll be working on the rest from there.

Here's the order the kits will be coming out in..1) S14 KA24DET2) S13 KA24ET3) S13 KA24DET

I did my final compression test today for piece of mind. With 128,000 miles I have 170-170-165-170. I'm very thankful the person before me took excellent care of the car.

Have you found an idea about the oil drain. i know you said you wanted a true bolt on and that meant not having to tap the oil pan. have u found a good way yet?

I will put the kits in the following order1. s-14 because its your car!!2. s-13 DOHC more market right now for them!!, easier to modify from the S-14 kit3. S-13 SOHC Its harder, and anyway most of the SOHC owners are swapping to a SR

That my opinion,91-94 owners do not have really a kit right now, or at least a good performing kitAnyway, let us know when you get the DOHC s-13 ready!!

I need a platform to do the S13 DOHC kit...Right now I have a S13 SOHC car as a donor. The person gets the kit at my cost. If you want to take a trip to Tucson for the weekend, maybe we can talk. Email me if your interested.

The SOHC and the DOHC are damn near the same kit fella's. We're talking 2 hours of labor to make one or the other...Its a simple matter of who provides the car, and Aleph1 has first dibs so far. Plus he said he'd bring down a bunch of hotties from Denver....so.
