Yah well you probably have heard this a 1,000,000 times but here is the the 1,000,001.....

Well ive heard that a built KA is has more torque than a built SR but do you have to rebuild the internals to turbo the KA???? ive heard there is some trouble with a build KAor should i just go for the swap and get the SR? but thats it because i have about 4 or 5k to spend on it

Go KA. You can build a KA-T in probably under 2k.It depends on how much boost you will run on the KA. Less than 7 pounds of boost on a KA on stock internals will be fine but if you want to go higher, then rebuild your engine.

BTW sig too big.

Any kind like Greddy, HKS, Turbonetics, etc. Just don't cheap out and buy one off of ebay. Check the Ka-T forum sections. You will learn more about this rather than reading what i type.
