OK, for the last time:

TO REV TO 7000 RPM:you need a JWT ecu or equivalent

TO ACTUALLY MAKE POWER ABOVE 6000 RPM:you need camshafts

OK? Everyone on the same page now?

lol....Way to put it bluntly. I've been on the same page since the post started :)

For head work--I'm not sure, I don't know how the KA head responds to port/polishing, or any kind of valve job (stiffer valve springs, titanium retainers, etc), you'd have to search around. If you really crave NA power, put in some 9.1:1 SOHC KA24E pistons in--it will give the KA an 11.1:1 C/R, and combined with some headwork, the KA would produce some nice power n/a.

Ok well while we're on the topic of differences between KA's ;) I was wondering what differences there are wiring and emissions wise between the s13 and s14 twin cam ka, also if I was to swap from my KA (97) to a 91 if I would have to use more/not use certain vacuum lines and wires. :confused:

Is there any difference in the gear ratios between the s13 and the s14?
