Thats why.

Greasers car is Totally radical. But, he spent money on his KA build. It wasn't cheap. ITB's and a standalone? No, not cheapening out at all.

Its just after that much money, I would rather just put an S2000 engine in.
John doesnt mean that he is just trying to drive you guys nuts.

KA24DE with cams + AEM + Headers + Exhaust/ Intake will make more usable power and torque than an S2000 engine, in fact stock for stock on a road course if you know what you are doing straigh line is almost the same.



ps. The 300 HP NA KAs are rated as Brake output, so they are more like 250whp, and they run on 110 or alchohal only.

Compression ratio is sky high.

About the highest you can get in a street car is aroun 180-200whp. Even Greaser has to run 100 octane or higher all the time

or his setup pings like crazy.
