what we got

[twitch24]

alright, i know i have had my car for a while, and i am hardcore KA24DE-T, but alot of people were talking shit about the KA motor and telling me the only way to make my car fast, was to swap a SR20 in to it, at this point, i was laughing at everyone telling them that all they have to do is wait, and finnaly 6 months after i got my car,91 240sx coupe DOCH 5 speed, i have got my turbo setup together, so now that i have spent some $$ on this stuff, all of my friends are still like "u wont run any faster than a hi 13 of low 14", id like to hear what u guys have to say about this heres the list
1)B.D. stage 2 kit-57 trim
2)clutch spec stage 3 from B.D. also
3)full exhaust from B.D.(as u can tell by now i really like their stuff)
4)enthalpy tuned ecu
5)B&M shifter
6)gage pod
7)boost gage
8)oil pressure gage
9)j30 LSD
10)z32 mafs
and thats all i can think of now, is have to go check everything right now,id like to get some feedback on this from u guys, what u thinking it is g
gonna run???

what about injectors? what size injectors are you going to have running with your Enthalpy tune that makes a big difference. i would say faster than a high 13 though. but again it can totally vary you need to be more specific.

P.S. #'s 6-8 are just gauges ("gages") and #9 is a cheap solution that will cost you 1/10ths of seconds.

well the setup seems to be pretty good but i personally think you'll be running about as fast as a sr20 (not just being bias'd) but with out injectors and running stock boost...im thinking you'll hit around 225 whp'ish...so thats as fast as my sr20...and my motor is still stock. but you add some more boost and you'll blow away any sr motor with the same boost level, and get some injectors atleast some 550's...other wise your pretty much going to be be running lean.

[driftking777]

btw that should all result in atleast a around a 13.5 1/4...id say atleast that

[TatII]

yeah the info without the injectors dont' tell anything really. and what psi are you running? that also is a big factor. if you have the proper fuel setup you should be able to run 14 psi on that turbo. with 14 psi that should be a high 12 second car. without the proper fuel, running small 370cc injectors, 9 psi is the safe limit with that i would have to say high 13's. also your friends are talkin all this smack about high 13's being slow. what do they drive?

Well if he is running the stage 2 kit from B.D. it comes with 52lb injectors.

[D-Bo]

the kit comes with 52lb injectors which convert to 546cc.. which will do.. other than that the kit looks good, and for $2600 you'll be just as quick as a stock sr like driftking said. up the boost a little and you might dip into the high 12s

[sidewayzS13]

isnt boost designs out of Panama city florida?

[D-Bo]

you beat me to it

[D-Bo]

and yes, they're in panama city

[s13dr1fter]

So the stage 2 kit form B.D. is about the same as to a stock sr?

[sidewayzS13]

beat u to what?

[D-Bo]

s13dr1fter beat me to posting the fact that the kit comes with 52lb injectors.

the conversion is simple. if you have the flow rate in lbs, then multiply by 10.5. if its in cc and you want lbs, divide by 10.5.

anyways, with this kit on and everything tuned properly he'll be about the same as a stock sr. i'd say side by side, the ka-t would win but in the higher rpm range the sr would dominate.. thats two stock turbo engines

[sidewayzS13]

if they were putting out the same power wouldnt the sr have a slight advantage because it is lighter?

[s13dr1fter]

thanks alot D-Bo. I think i decided to go sr now.
