just wondering altezza grl where ur getting your information from about the ka not being able to handle boost well? yes rick will pwn u. i personally think u need to do it urself before u make such delirious statements. tuning and choosing good components is the key to a reliable ka-t. nothing more nothing less. and just in case ur wondering how i can make such statements, well i am ka-t and have been so for about 15,000 miles..................
for the guy who passed the remark about the sr being almost as cost effective as the ka-t.............well as u may very well know, it depends on what u ended up paying for the components of the ka-t. if u payed 100 bux for some greddy air filter or if you payed 60 bux for some SR injectors, im sure the pricing will work out to be cheaper than an SR. obviously labor is what is gonna get both sides of the story. if u can sway the SR in urself then u would save lots of money just as if u could install the turbo kit on the KA. i will say that every ka-t i have encountered with any turbo larger than a t25 will smoke any stock SR with no bolt on components.
Once again, this is rediculous.
#1: For your 15,000 miles statement, lets think why you have to keep reinforcing that to everyone. Its
such an accomplishment for you to put 15,000 miles on your ka-t.
#2: If the reason why most ka-t's blow is because poor quality tuning parts, then that must mean that everyone using poor quality tuning parts, right? Probably not.

Thats a sad statement. How much did that ka-t owner spend vs. the stock sr owner? Alot less.
In any case, if your going turbo with any car, dont go the cheap way because it will bite you back in the ***.
Also, spending tons of money to run on 5-10psi is nothing. But Im not going to sit here and argue, because Nissan isnt my strong point.
Candyman, this is what you have to factor in to help you make your choice:
Labor: will you be doing it? Will someone else be doing it? Cost of labor (if you dont do it)
Downtime: Do you have another car that could be used while the car is being worked on or if your working on it?
Time: How much time do you plan on spending? Do you want your car to be done soon?
Problems: Are you financially able to handle all the problems that would/could arise?
And Ricky, I dont hate you. I just hate the fact that you contradict
everything I say. Thats what upsets me. And alot of times you give uneducated rebuttles and then go to contradict yourself. I, like yourself have better things to do than argue online as well. So I would appreciate it if you wouldnt attack all my statements. I apologize for insulting you, yet I didnt appreciate that right off the bat you basically insulted me and my intelligence.
