KA & SR Turbo Lines Question of the Day

[nissantuner22]

HA! I bet your confused right now. Either that or your ready to enter this thread with the intent of telling me to search. But let us relax for a moment, and ponder.

Since I'm turbo charging a SR20DE engine, its pretty much the same procedure for turbo charging a KA engine. Only big difference is I have a boss on my engine block that I can use for the oil return, and don't have to fabricate something onto my oil pan.

Heres the big question.

Can I use a KA turbo line kit on my SR20DE with no problems? Bear in mind most of the line kits I have seen aren't for T28 turbos, they're usually for T3/T4's which would lead me to believe I need to make something custom. Taka lines are sweet, but lets be realistic, there just Earl's stuff. It might be cheaper for me to purchase the necessary hardware and have my local tubes and hoses place put it together.

So...

What do you guys think. Should I just piece a custom set up together myself?

And lastly, what are you guys doing for the water lines? I was going to use spacers for my water needs. Something similiar to this, but for the RWD SR20DE application.
