I want to Turbo my KA24 from my 96 Altima GXE, will everything from a 240sx bolt right up to where all I will have to buy is a fuel management system? and will the injectors off a 240 provide me with enough fuel so I dont have a problem running too rich or too lean? Or is there an alternative/easier method of putting some boost to that KA24? 8-10 lbs of boost should be plenty for me. I also have a, intercooler, blow off valve and NOS kit sitting in my closet that I can hear calling my name and telling me to slap it all in my altima. Who the hell is gonna look at a 96 Altima GXE and be afraid to run it? I would rather someone laugh at me, then get their *** handed to them by the very car they were laughing at. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

240sx never came with a turbo KA. The Silvia and 180sx came w/ turbo but that was an SR20DET engine and parts will not work on a KA. You will need to buy an aftermarket kit. A 240sx kit should work, but you may need some parts modified or fabricated. I would just look for an altima kit, but you could always find a 240sx turbo kit for a KA for the most part should work or should be able to be modified to work. I would find a kit and call the place that makes it and ask them about fitting it to an Altima. Or just go with an Altima kit and you know its going to work....
