I'm planning on building a couple of turbo KAs (dohc), and I was just wondering a few things:

1. What is the ideal A/F ratio for the motor

2. is it worth it to port out the head (money vs. hp gain)

3. can I run cams on the motor or is it too high compression?

If anyone could give some helpful input on this it would be greatly apprieciated.

Your ideal a/f ratio will depend on a variety of factors. That is what tuning with a wideband is for.

Safe is 11.5ish. Your setup and goals and what you do with your car needs to determine your a/f. How much power you looking for?
