I've just recently started researching about KA-T's but I think the JGS manifold come with a T3 flange?

Yes, you will have a problem with a s15 turbo because the flanges on the exhaust manifold you want is a t3 flange, while a t28 is a t2 flange.

A t3 sized turbo is a much more efficient for the big 2.4 li KA.

Yes a T3 will be "better" but its up to you! With a T28 you can achieve numbers ranging from 230-270 depending on ur set-up. If u've got one in hand use it! U'll Spool just like a T25 but it'll hold up more boost.

yea im on stock block also with a 130kk (well takin care of tho) so t3 shouldn't be a problem right i have no rod knock or anything and my compression still good. i have searched on the forum alot guys are well over the 350hp range with stock block and many that blew theres, but alot guys blew thiers was because of there tune. so i guess ill take my chances **** it.

Everything I have found points to ,good tune= lots of power and fun.Bad tune = lots of money and heartache. If you have the knowledge, then tune yourself with a safc or emanage etc. But I don't have the knowledge yet so I chose to have a tuned ecu. I got mine from e-mance, but everything I read about his ecu's were good. every review said he had a great tune that was right where it needed to be. I'm not pushing his product, just stating what I found.I should have all my turbo set up installed and running this weekend and I plan on posting a review of my e-mance tune. So stay "TUNED" tee hee.Sorry, couldn't help it

I am selling a garrett t28 gt28r turbo for $850. It has never been used and i can throw in the turbo inlet and outlet flanges as well. It is a dual ballbearning turbo that has really quick spool time and works well with the ka. up to about 315 rwhp.
