There's a guy over on the NICO board who hit 597whp from his stock internals (aftermarket cams only) RB25, and another guy hit 490whp with his stock internals RB20...

The RB20 is a bit lighter than the RB25, mostly because it uses a lighter transmission, is easy to install, and I picked up my whole swap for under $1000. I'm doing RB20 because they sound 10x better than an SR, it can make the power "I" want (~350whp) and I could afford it.

Turbo'ing the KA is cool if you want 250-275whp, but if you want more, you have to build the engine, in which case, a stock rb25 is better off than that or a stock rb20 and it doesn't weigh that much more than the KA did in the first place.

Anyhoo, just my opinion.
