question about compression

[240stunner]

I have a 1991 ka24de and want to get about 400hp out of it. I am wondering what the best compression would be to run it. should i go low like 8.4:1 or go higher like 10:1 any help will be appreciated.

I say you run 15:1 compression with a drag turbo the size of brooklyn.

Just make sure you can find 300 octane gas.

A high compression turbo would defiently get you there but then thats race gas and race gas IS NOT STREETABLE and AFFORDABLE unless your rich.

A few KA-T guys have done it, it is not going to happen N/A at least not on a cheap budget.

Read up, search around the KA-T forums. 400HP is a achieveable goal but not realitic unless you have tuning/engine experience or lots of $$$

400hp.....

it might actually be cheaper to put in a VK56DE endurance motor..... be the first!

come on, six bolt mains! and 400 ftlbs stock... plus youre only a hundred horse away from 400

its only like 4 brand new.... plusa about 6G in work....

RB26, or VK56..... its up to you.....

or one night with Carmen Electra.... nah, get the VK

I might be more inclined to take one night with Carmen Electra over 400hp. But then again, I don't have any use for 400hp.

Or drop in a bottle fed LS1 with a few bolt ons. I have a freind with one for sale. WOOT WOOT!

1500 or so. I think it has about 6k miles on it. And it is either in KC or Des Moines, He is in the middle of mooving.
