Yeah, unless you are finding a way to run both on your KA they are no dice.

I'm half thinking of picking up a GTR turbo to put on my NX for a nice daily driver with on demand boost.

Basically T28 sized turbos, they are decent for a KA but you need to keep the shaft RPMs down as they tend to run into failures quite often.

yeah you may want to get a bit bigger turbo. the T3 super 60's work great on the ka's for instant boost and good power to readline.

You could make up to 250-300ish hp with this turbo.

No, I think he meant the T3 super 60. That RB26 turbo is smaller than an SR turbo. I doubt you could hit 250whp with it.

RB26 turbos are too small for a CA, much less your KA. =\RB20 and 25 turbos are very similar, with the 25 having a slightly bigger compressor housing I think. Neither will get you 300whp though.
