Hey Guys,I live in BC and i get my N on june 13th, im going down to vancouver this weekend to get a 240sx, now ill probably get an older one 1992 perhaps and ill turn it intow an s15 particularly somehtins liek this http://www.extremedimensions.com/4981.html but i had previously planned on just doing minor mods to the engine to get it running well put and exhaust brakes etc. and then toss in a 150 db system but not im leaning towards tossin a turbo on the stock KA you guys will knoe a lot more about what is require to do that, i wont do it myself ill probably get someone to do it for me, but im wondering what im gettin myself into im only thinkin around 275- 300hp ill be drivin this car everyday. Any recommendations on what i should do and do u have any sites with lists of **** i need to do to make the engine able to handle the turbo?thx Guys

Yeah, the KA24 is a very good engine is stock trim. The only real weak links are the piston ring lands and rings. They crack at 380-400 whp give or take. But 300 is perfectly attainable without touching the engine at all. You'll simply need a turbo kit and some engine management to go with.
