what to do

I just bought my 240 a couple of days ago. I am mostly into drag racing. And that is what i want to set it up for. I do not have the money for a swap or turbo now since i am in college. As most everyone know the KA does not have very much high rpm power. I have done research on how to improve this. But i wanted to get some other peoples opinions on how to get more power in the higher rpms.

Re: what to do

start saving for swap or turbo the ka isn't a high reving motor and will take alot to be made a high reving high power N/A car.

best bang for buck would be start fabbing up your own turbo kit. If you happen to step on a landmine at work and get some $$$ outta it RB25DET swap

Re: what to do

First start would be a 3" exhaust. My Apexi N1 made a lot more power in the 4k+ area. Doesn't really stop pulling till about 6800. Intake will help too. Turbo is your best bet. Get something rather big too. Like a straight T04.

Re: what to do

your car pulled all the way to 6800, in mine it just seems like after about 6000 it just quits pulling

Re: what to do

I Thought The Ka (after Adding A Turbo) Engine Had More Power On The Straight Than The Sr.
