Alright well i searched a little before posting and couldnt find nething. So i bought a s13 and it has a sr20de in it. Well i have a turboed block in the garage that im building. Basically what im wondering is can i use the n/a head even with it running with distributor? Also is it even worth doing? Or should i just go ahead and buy a det head also? Thanks for any info.

Same head, it's not like a FWD SR head.

Build away!

Depends, are you doing to use a DE or DET ECU?

If you got the DET ECU, harness, CAS, etc, then run that.

No i dont have ne of that. ive heard you can get a ka ecu and send to jim wolf and have it tuned for the sr running distributor and turboed. Is this true. Or should i just buy a det ecu harness etc..

In my opinion the coil pack and CAS set-up is going to be more reliable, the extra heat from the turbo will destroy the ignition wires on a distributor set-up. Spend the money and use the SR20DET set-up
