Likewise, not tryin to be smart but with an question like that, you'd get more results putting turbo kit-ka24de into yahoo or google. The only ones that comes to mind that is still bein made is the GReddy one, or the jgs. You'd better off pieceing your own together. For all things ka-t related try ka-t.org, entire forum dedicated to what you are asking about

^^ i think he was talking about this one.

Infamax · 04-22-2008, 09:18 PM

I think you'd be better off piecing together your own kit, instead of buying one.

all you'd really need is:
Turbo Manifold
Turbo
Downpipe
Intercooler core and piping
Injectors
Oil line kit from JGS
Upgraded Fuel Pump
and MOST IMPORTANT engine management

Most kits sold dont include some of this stuff like, Oil lines, fuel pump, intercooler, or an EMS

crzycav86 · 04-22-2008, 09:50 PM

ssautochrome/sr turbo/ebay special.

just do it unless you're willing to shell out for the real deal.

i agree. i was lookin into turbo for my KA and found it better to DIY. get exactly wht u want and you might be able to get better deals here and there.

Aaronsx · 04-22-2008, 11:52 PM

Yeah. With patience you can find some great deals. I'm peicing together a very nice kit that will be capable of alot of power, and I have spent considerably less than what some of those other kits cost.

KA-T_240 · 04-23-2008, 12:03 AM

make your own. You will be happier in the end.

How much power do you want, and what is your budget?

Kurai Shimo · 04-23-2008, 02:05 AM

i had listed mine up a week or two ago. way cheaper than its gonna cost you for everything to have the same setup. and it has literally everything you need to get it running and no need to get it tuned. capable of over 400hp if your motor can handle it.
ive run it at a little over 300hp with no problems on a completely stock motor.
http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=185950

often people (from people ive talked to and personal experience) make a short list for things they will need and usually underestimate the costs for small parts they will need, as well as fabrication of intercooler piping and such. can add up very quickly. if you do your own kit. be prepared for it to cost you more than you originally anticipated my the time everything is done.

i used to run an ebay manifold/turbo setup was neat until i realized the component fitment/design was crap(some flanges had to be rewelded and such). and i had to work on it later which was hard as a result of aforementioned crappy design. and then the manifold cracked about once a month. it was pretty cheap though(at first).
imo, no matter where you get yor stuff from or what setup you run, you are better off doing it right, so you only have to do it once.

I will end this now before 50 more people remind the thread starter to search
