I'm tired of my 200k old KA24DE causing so much head-ache. I'm thinking about buying SR20DE but the turbo seems a liitle more complex and out of my budget range to get everything done right.

If I get a non-turbo SR20DE and want to upgrade to turbo later, is it possible? (I see KA-Turbo people)What are the difference between SR20DE and SR20DET? rpm, hp, compression etc.

I have new Clutch kit, motor mount and exhaust manifold for KA, can they be used in SR20?

If I can get SR20DET for $1,200 (minus ECU) on ebay how much should I pay for SR20DE non-turbo with these?5 speed manual transmissionuncut wireharness ecucoil and igniterairflow meter alternatorstarterpower steering ac compressordownpipe

Anyone here have a non-turbo SR20DE for sale? (I'm hitting for cost cutting)Thanks

If you want turbo later, you might as well as get the SR20DET now, that or rebuild the KA and turbo charge that. In my opinion it would be less of a pain, instead of buying a SR20DE and turbo charging...after all the turbo isnt the only difference between the SR20DE and the SR20DET.
