so i got a 1990 s13 with pretty low miles(104K) and was thinking of running the ka24e in there for a while since its running real strong atm. i was curious as too whats the max amount of horsepower i could get from it without turbo charging it, using upgrades such as headers intake and and exaust. any help would be a appreciated im kinda new here :confused: p.s. i looked around and couldnt find any pages on this so please no flaming :)

those items will net you about 10-20 hp total if that, a lightweight flywheel will give you better throttle response and slightly better acceleration.

Turbo that single cam. That's what I'll be doing.
