First off, welcome to NICO! This is the FWD SR section. You need to be in RWD SR. Post up letting me know you saw this and I'll move it for you.

Secondly, 350hp is MUCH easier with boost. NA RWD SR's have been swapped into 240s before, but there's no real point. Your KA is capable of more power NA anyway just because it has more displacement. You'll spend several times more money making a high-hp NA SR (or KA) than you would on an SR20DET or KA-T or any other turbo setup. Take a look at all of your options by browsing the site a bit and see what you want to do.

I have an N/A S14 SR in my S14

Although KAs are bigger.S14 NA SRs make more to the crankand respond better to bolt ons vs the KA

although most say its not worth itthe N/A SR is a bit lighter than the KA.which is a Plus.and its a rare swap. the N/A SR.

i say go for it.better on gas too.

eh...if your looking for 350 out of the N/A...

you'd be better off with buying a Turbo SR...with an S14 SR Seeing 300 would be as easy as a turbo/ Fuel Pump/ and Injectors upgrade

The N/A SRs are weaker internally than turbo SR's..when i boost mine.im only going to be looking for around 200-250 to the wheels.thats more reasonable off the N/A

as far as 350 off of just N/A.thats a hard goal to reach off a completely Naturally aspirated motor.

when it comes to KAs and SRs .Boost is the easiest/cheapest/best way to make 300+ HP.

their are ways to make 200+ off of the N/A thobut would require alot more money than boost.
