Awesome! One of these days when the money tree blooms I will be swapping one into a 510 or S12!nelson8708 wrote:

FJ20ET
Both 8,000rpm and still pulling!!!
One of the coolest 4 cylinders ever produced.

And in the case of the FJ20ET one of the more powerful as well.Tulsa_S-13 wrote:

Best advice yet. Whatever you do only cut corners on areas that are aesthetic or don't affect car safety or performance.darkforcejackal wrote:Ultimately, i'd advise only trying to save money where it is wise to do so.
I was wondering about this! I have a SOHC and I want to do N/A mods I got a header,ngk wires, plugs, exhaust on its way, intake...but I was wondering how I could lean this bad boy out and how to build up an N/Atorque monster? and the motor only has 96k. anyone know where I can get a cam for the single cam? or where to get a ecu programable chip?Edub1 wrote:and doing a motor swap, you should consider a cam or cams, a header and a good tune. I'm quite sure you could gain at least 40WHP with these mods. The KA exhaust is designed with a few PSI of backpressure that can go for 15+HP and a cam should add another 15. Adding about 5* of timing and leaning out the KA's God awfull rich fuel map should add another 10-20.
For under $1000 and no swap, 180-190HP N/A FTW. I will be glad to help you with a tune.

oh come on it's all in good fun. if that really angered you that much, i apologize.greengt2nv wrote:You know what PHUCK this place all people can do is flame!!! I come for advice! Not to put up with ignorant a$$holes!!! If I wanted to do that I would just ask these questions at Autozone!
Read my response to Edub1's post that you just quoted. His numbers are very unrealistic. If you were to be able to pull off 150 WHP with bolt ons, you're in good shape. It would take some serious headwork and tuning to achieve 170-180 WHP. Above that, you'ld need a huge budget, be able to do some engineering and would sacrifice drivability and longevity. You're not going to get any miracles out of bolt-ons.greengt2nv wrote:

Well I just wanted to know how much cheaper. All I want is around 180-200whp with very low boost.
I was also trying to make sure I got all the things I need if I went the KA-T route.
Thanks!
http://store.max-redline.com/servlet/-s ... rbo/Detailyou can get CA's and RB's for near 1200$ I dont know if you can beat that for a KA turbo kit.
As far as power production goes, I'd like you to search for the 1000+whp KA-T.redtop91 wrote:Torque whores go KA. Rev whores go SR. WDRacing, an SR swap is far cheaper than any RB swap in my opinion but while this topic is more useful than most (I had to delete the flame that I had made) it still frustrates me because there is no real reason why to do one over the other because any real horsepower will require rebuilds of both (but the SR internals are good for 400+ ). I am an SR guy and I really look at the KA-T as (dont anyone get angry and call me a brat) as the Wal Mart brand of engine swaps, its the cheaper, quicker alternative. But I feel that those who really know where power production is at go SR.
