i curently have a 93 240 with an SR20 in place but i just bought an S14 and am thinking about doing the KA-T. i was wondering what turbo would be the best for a quick spool up on the KA. i have my stock T25 but that seems a litle small for a 2.4l. would a super 60 or t3/t4e 54 tirm be better? i am looking for the fastest spool possible as this will be an autocross car and just a little cruising around, definitley no highway runs.thanksLee

the t25 might be good if u wanted fast spool, i think it gets full boost on a ka just before 3k

T3/T04E 50trim w/ .48ar stage 3 turbine. Doesn't get any better than that. Unless you start looking into GT turbos.

T3 Super 60 is a good low-boost setup...especially with stock cams.

If I built and auto-x specific car for SM, I'd use one.

You can order dual ball bearing center housings for the t3/t4 hybrids from garrett too now so they would be a quick spooling and push alot of air.

Are you running this setup now? I understand that the 0.48 turbine housing will restrict exhaust at high RPM.
