Holy crap last night i had a nightmare that i pulled my head on my dual cam and the rings where just sitting on top of the first cylinder and it was terrible i just wanted to know if that means i'm not sane??? or maybe someone else has had a nightmare about there KA's. I'm just trying to divert conversation away from the same old "NA builds!!!!" and "should i go turbo, ITB, or NA??"

lol come on man, you know everyone is gonna say turbo, even me. Though I did have a weird dream that I was gonna change oil in my girlfriends paseo, but there was a SR in there and for some reason I thought that was completely normal. But for some reason I wanna swap out her motor to the 5EFHE now

turbo, studying the torque to whp ratios vs. the sr and the ka.. the Ka will dominate overall even though its a "build" and not something that comes pre assembled. Anything built is always something to appreciate.

my cel came on recently, gonna pull the code tomorrow. do you think that power loss issue could be caused by the knock sensor

Also I know where your going at, but if you think about it, there are only so many options for the KA, or anything for that matter. So why not turbo I daresay

I unplugged the knock sensor and my problem didn't go away so thats not why it's messed up i'm gonna change my plug wires and see what happens i think i ruined them they sat on my exhaust manifold

and i'm not doing anything with my ka i'm going RB20 at some point but turbo would be cheap easy power
