Well after 4 long months and thousands of $$$$ I finally got to drive it home today! To bad I have to wait 1500 miles to razz on it. I just got major beef from a Volvo 850 R, the guy was burning out next to me trying to get me to race, I was pissed. I only have the downpipe on so it is loud as #### but sounds awesome. I will try to get some pics posted of the intake manifold and stuff soon. My mods are as follows: Turbonetics T3/T4 60-1, Tial wastegate, MSD 72 lb. injectors, Jim Wolf ECU, Racetech fuel rail, Racetech Intake Manifold, Spearco Intercooler, Arias 8.5:1 Pistons .5 over, Carillo rods, 3" Downpipe, Apexi N1, Cobra MAFS, HKS EVC4, RevHard Manifold. I just got back from another drive, I'm up to 65 miles now, gotta change the oil tomorrow, gonna try to put the 1500 on it in like 3 weeks so I can start boostin' hehe

hopefully about 350 when this breaks in. My goal is 400, I will be putting in cams as soon as they are released and a bigger turbo when I can afford it.

sorry if I sound like a dumb ass, but what's a KA24DET engine?
HEH, when I first saw this and was like..."what the ####, he's had this thing for months..." The KA24DE is the engine that comes stock in our 240's. We just call it a KA24DET when we put a turbo on it. Hey PSI, how's she runnin for you anyway? Weren't you about to sell it a while back?

I just recently had the pleasure of riding in a 470hp KADET equipped S13 coupe. Monstrously fast, faster than the bike he blew by (suzuki 750 I think). I am very impressed by the KADET setup. His was all custom, Arias pistons, custom rods, Revhard manifold. He is running like 1bar/14psi, dynoed at just over 400 at the wheels. KADET power!
Hope you enjoy yours.

Sweet ride Dude, 400hp excellent thats what we like to see.
alright psi, that's awesome.
hopefully my car should be put back together in a month or so.
400wrhp, at what psi do you expect to run.
and what turbo are you upgrading to because i need to get a bigger one also,
i expect to run 320-350whp with the turbo i have now
and 360-400whp with the bigger turbo.

What did you end up paying for the intake manifold? Also, was that fuel rail made for the KA or did you have it machined to fit?

Okay, wow this is a really old topic someone dug up, to answer everyone, BoostedS14: I run 20psi on punp gas, don't ask me how cause no one knows, I would like to upgrade the turbo to a T-66 but I am selling the car.
Transient: I paid like $250 I think but that was because I was the guinea pig, he wants $450 for each new one. The fuel rail was custom made for me by the same guy who did the intake manifold and intercooler piping.
FourG63: You have mail with pics attached.
Luey02: I had a friend build the motor and install it for me, everything but the boost controller and the intake manifold was replaced with new, bigger components, the car was turbo allready but I blew the motor, I spent about $6000 on everything and installation.
