Ok cool guy,I've been on this forum for quite a while. I don't post much, I'm more of a lurker. I've had a KA-T in the works for quite some time now and it's finally all coming together. To put it bluntly, you're a f*cking tool. You type about as good as I...wait, I can do anything better than you can type. Go back to 3rd grade and learn to the English language (maybe they'll teach you to write with that extra wide ruled paper with 2" line spacing). Yes, there are some KAT guys out there that are cheap, but there are also some out there that will spend however much $$$ it takes to get things the way they want them. I'm one of those people. If you don't have the time or money to do it right the first time, how will you ever find the time or money to redo it the second time.

Cams-$400-550 we'll say $400Valve Springs-$300Cam Gears $350FP Stage 1 Turbo Upgrade-$2350 (turbo, ECU, 550's, Z32 MAF, and accessories)
Total-$3400Plus cost of SR- $2000 give or take (usually more, but I'll cut you a good deal since this is all hypothetical That gets you to $5400
That's not even including your extras like FMIC, BOV, Wastgate, Boost Controller, Exhaust, etc. You can make 400whp with a stock KA without having to buy the $2000 motor, or any of the valvetrain parts. Hell put pistons in it and you'll be good for 500. Pistons AND rods, and you're close to 600. Don't talk about the almighty SR in a KA-T forum, you will be own3d! The KA makes gobs of power if done correctly, and it will always make gobs more torque than the SR will.

I have spoken with Ivan many times, and yes, that KA did make 400hp. Not enough fuel? Uhh, it had bigger injectors with an updgraded fuel pump, so I don't know how it didn't have enough fuel. The cams are obviously good enough to make good numbers with, after all, the first set of Crower cams the dynoed didn't do anything except move the powerband up 100rpm higher. And that was when they made 576 (iirc) whp.
chrisandjaylin wrote:no matter how much you tune it you cant turn up the boost to much or the head gasket will go
The stock nissan headgasket has been proven to hold at least 22psi of boost, so I don't think that's a problem. Especially when a KA-T makes about 375whp at around 15-16 psi of boost on your average T3/T4.
chrisandjaylin wrote:the rodes will snapp
Assuming that means "the rods will snap"... The rods are stout. They did 400whp without batting an eye. It wasn't until the 500whp mark that they started to go, and they definitely didn't snap, they started to bend ('S' shape).
chrisandjaylin wrote:lies like this makes me think his dyno chart is from a mustang or something. i take that back maybe an dodge or an evo
WTF? This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Mustang, Dodge, and Evo...well Mustang and Dodge are both domestic, but one is a car model, the other is a car make. And the Evo is a model too, but it's an import, so none of these have anything to do with each other...again...WTF?

'Cause everyone knows...If the "the top drift guyZ" do it, it must be the "mosst besttest awwsomestt tekmologie in da wurld y0!!"
I'm done...This needs to be locked
