It's all fine and dandy until you get used to the power bump and start fucking with it more. Then BOOM, blown engine...you stepped forward one by adding a turbo and now you're 2-3 steps back with a blown engine.
trust me im a huge ka fan i had a stock one for awhile and then turbo it it blew due to a broken water pump belt built it all forged ran good broke timing chain rebuilt the head then blew a headgasket and fried some rings ruined the block now im having a new block made and pretty much a whole new motor all over again

and i have never tracked my car cause its always broke i have had my car for 3 years always had a ka or t and i have put 6000 miles on it and its my daily i get more miles out my fixed gear as a daily maybe i just have had bad luck but nobody around here have much luck with ka-t around here

but im so ass deep in this motor and turbo setup the only thing i can do it fix it and try again lol
