i have a 1995 s14 (ka24de) as of right now i have greddy header, injen cai., new lsd, full apexi hi flow cat back exhaust, tein super street coilovers, and other little stuff that doesnt matter but i figure i might have 200 hp but im not very technical so i dont know but i just want to know if i would put a t3 t4 turbo kit on this engine if it would be worth it and how much faster would it be and how hard installation would be and what i would need to get so my engine could handle it like new pistons and rods ???? thanks for any help

with those mods as of now youll be luck to break 150whp.

with the turbo you can see about 210whp with a verry conseritive tune. but i think you should do more reasearch about turbo and read up on things b4 making the decision its not all fun and games. alot can and does go wrong.

btw ssa turbo kits are crap.

Its much easier and cost effective to make power with a turbo. Even with high compression pistons, cams, valvetrain work and headwork, you'll be lucky to make 200whp. 200whp can be done with a used SR20 T25 and low boost.

You could prolly sell your header and intake and recoup a bit of money spent on a turbo setup.

Is there some kind of conspiracy ring going around that makes certain at LEAST one post like this every day finds its way to the KA-T section?!?! I swear, I'm going insane seeing the same old mindless drivel day in and day out. I just don't get it.... It's not even worth the time to flame the non-searching ignorant n00bs anymore.

And for the love of GOD, USE PUNCTUATION. Everytime I read a run-on sentence I can't help but think a 12 year old (mind?) is behind it.

If you just re-read what you posted, you couldn't possibly expect any decent answers to your questions. How could anyone possibly answer your broad, generalized questions? How do we know how much faster it would be if we don't know how fast your car is right now, nor what kind of boost and supporting modifications you are planning? How would anyone know how hard an installation would be if you haven't mentioned whether it's going to be a custom kit, a good off-the-shelf kit, one installed by yourself, or by a shop, etc.? How do we know what your engine can handle if you haven't stated the condition it's in, the miles it has, or the type of boost and supporting modifications you're planning on running? Am I the only one who's annoyed to no end by this crap?

first off you wont have 200hp with those mods. not even close. An intake and exhaust setup wont add 50hp. But if you want to turbo this is good. It will totally be worth it. Check out IAP, there a sponsor and they have a stage 1 turbo kit that will work for you. Add some SR 370cc injectors and a few other supporting mods and your set. so yes, it will be worth it.
