Hey, welcome to NICO! If you haven't already found them, you should check out our 240sx, 240sx Technical, KA and KA-T forums.

What year is your 240?

welcome noob.

nico has a very good resource for the kat conversion. here are the ten easy steps to ka turbo conversion! complete in this order:

1) scroll down and click on ka-t subforum2) click the stickied thread "read here first", and read everything there3) do a search in the kat forum for everything you didn't understand in the "read here first" thread, as well as independent resource/google searching. I also suggest howstuffworks.com. Lurk the kat forum while you're absorbing all of your information.4) after doing all of that, you will have gained personal permission to start a thread asking any kat related question that you do not understand.5) save money6) buy kat parts7) install kat parts8) get car tuned9) enjoy car10) paypal donation to [email protected]

awww... this thread should have stayed in gen chat. that way it wouldn't be like every other "need help with turbo ka". 10 steps to ka still applies.

Gotta love the 10 steps!.....Step 7.5) Get pissed about something going wrong and swear at carStep 9.5) Get mildly annoyed with newbs starting vague "how do I turbo my KA?" threads and point them to this one....there, now it's an official 12 step program

Once you complete all the steps, send $5.00 + $35.00 S&H to [email protected] to recieve your official "I completed crzycav's 12 step program" certificate.
