I know everyone is swapping S13 and S14 and a few S15 SR20DET's into their 240's, but what are the disadvantages of turboing a 16v KA? Cost would the roughly the same, maybe less than the SR swap and KA's are a dime a dozen.
I know the KA has an iron block and steel oil pan where as the SR has aluminum block and mostly aluminum oil pan, so the SR is probably a little lighter.
The KA internals could be upgraded to handle more than a few pounds of boost....
so why not turbo the KA?

It's not that we don't want to help...it's just that these things have been said so many times there's no sense in repeating it.

After you search, if you need clarification, come post it! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
