"2. I'm not messing with fuel pressure at all. Stock pressure, stock pump, stock injectors."
Eh? And fuel will be added how? Or are you assuming that stock ECU, mafs, injectors, fuel map will acount for extra 4psi worth of air?
"3. Reread my post. There is a "normal ic - 300" line. That's what you can get a spearco for off ebay."
Not sure what you mean. But piping is a whole different story. That if done well/right can easily surpass 300 bux
"4. well, 2 1/4" piping will be well enough for my 4psi. And if it will really be killing me, $50 bux spent on that piping won't be a big loss."
Good luck getting all that to fit right... I'm serious, that might be the hardest part of your project.
"As for srs beating kas.... can't say any facts here. Cuz neither have i seen a ka race an sr, neither do i have a ka. But from general stuff that i heard..."
Exactly
"Johnathan runs 15psi right? 13.3 in the 1/4 correct numbers right? Let's assume that's sr's max without changing the turbo."
His turbo might very well be capable of pushing 21 psi. But that's another topic and his setup should not be stereotyped.
"Now, i don't remember the guy's name, but he had a black s14a at the last meet with a 7psi ka running 13.9. I bet at 12 psi it will make it to 13.3 or even less"
His name was Steve. Fmax stage 2. Beaten by a 96 black w/ 98 s13blacktop sr 7psi fmic, HPI exhaust manny, turbo extension, 3 inch exhaust. and some other bolt ons.
"Jeff240sx's car showed 14.8 in the 1/4 with gtechpro. Yeah, not that accurate but he has an auto. Say it's abit off and his car only runs 15. I have a manual so i guess i'll be able to pick up .5s there. That's for just running what he has. Now on top of his setup, i'm using:
1) a smaller turbo => faster spool up
2) 91 cams
3) 2.5 mandrel bent exhaust
4) electric fan
5) smic
6) LSD (better start off if we are talking 0 - 1/4mile)
now i have an internal WG so say i loose something there and leaky cyllinders, but i'm pretty sure that 14.2-14.3 is well achievable with what i will have. And all that stuff still ends me up at ~$2200."
And you will be paying the price of an SR to ultimitly be slower than an SR. Plus with these choices your making you will be severly limiting what can be done once you decide to turn the boost up.
Heavythrottle is a great place. The best in my eyes. But c'mon. SR's are pretty easy to get at the prices I mentioned nowadays. And I bought my motor at a very reputable company. As long as you buy a clip you'll be fine. All the SR horror stories are from people buying motorsets. I have never seen anyone complain from buying a clip.
