hey vager don't let these guys get to you, they mean well. Like its been said up above, KA24DE and KA24E are engine codes used by Nissan to show what type of engines are in the 240sx's. Since Nissan has never produced a turbo-charged 240SX here in the states, there is no official KA24DET in which you could associate a horse-power number with.
On the other hand, I would have to guesstimate that putting on a T3/T4 kit can yield results close to 300HP+. 300 is usually the magic number to reach for though. Now with that in mind you can say that yes, this type of "KA24DET" engine will produce more horsepower than the SR20DET. However, in terms of which engine is "better", that is an age old debate. If you search and sift through the many pointless threads such as this one you'll actually find some good and interesting SR vs KA threads. See your lucky because all that sifting has already been done for you and all that great info can be found (ironically....but not really) in the "GREAT INFO" sticky.
