opinions are wanted..

1-- Is a KA24e even worth turboing or should you just go with the KA24de?

2-- If I do decide to turbo my 24e, what are some other things that I should change as well..

3-- Are these things I shouold add to both or do the e and de require different mods for hp..

FYII'm not into drifting yet I'm just looking to blow away some of these hondas and acuras around town, and look good doing it..

Thanks in advance..

Id post pics of mine but I don't know how..

1- Yes. Options are limited however, you are stuck with one good choice for the turbo manifold, the JGS precision one.

2 - Research, go to the Ka-T forum and read the stickied threads at the top of the page, has everything you need to know in it.

3 - Im kinda tired and your last question hurts my head.

Death to all hondas!! Slap the DE in, Turbo, get to the speed limit before any honda or acura out there!!! I beat a Prelude with my SR having a blown charge pipe so i'm sure a KA-T would wax the emblem off a civic or EGG
