okay, Im trying to decide Which i want, a KA24E or a SR20DET.
So my question is are there Any sites on the net that have info about the KA24E with Turbo, i have been trying to find stuff on it.
i would like to Get the KA, simply because its Supported here in the States ( plus it will pass emmissions) but i cant seem to find any info, i know this Question is been asked a million times, but the search function would not work for me, so i just asked

This post will start a war.  And I will try to avert that.
You just mentioned emissions.  To get away with boosting, and pass emmissions, you HAVE to get the GReddy turbo kit.  And I dont think they make a s13 kit.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

If you are going to Turbo a KA get the DE not the E . there is like hardly any support out there for KAe's in Turbo setups. Now on the other hand the DE has several different makers of Turbo kits and a S14 kit can adapted to a S13 pretty easily so do not let that deter you.
If you can get yourself a SR with low miles and warranty that would be the other way to go. Its up to you. I am remaining nuetral in this  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

SR20DET -> $6000-7000?
215HP stock (depends on which SR engine you get).  I read on some website about a shop in cali that charges $10000, they do the SR20 install and estimate 350HP at wheels.

KA24DE Turbo kit -> $3000-$6000
upto 450HP depending on how much you spend <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

www.nsport.com

KA24E Turbo kit -> $1500-$5000
upto 450HP again, dependin on how much you spend
www.realnissan.com

IMO, installation on the KA24E is easier and cheaper.  As for the support, yeah there's lesser support for a KA24E...  but i'd still go with the turbo install on a KA24E.  The engine's cheap, the turbo kit is cheap and you get the same power as a KA24DE

please do correct me if any of the above info is incorrect <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

Very incorrect.

SR - 2000 if you find a good deal...
FMIC - 900 Blitz (Spearco cheaper, Blitz easier)
BOV - 200
Exhaust/Downpipe - 700 (cheaper custom)
T3/T04 - 700
Manifold (South Florida Performance) - 500
Wastegate - 300
Fuel Pump - 150
Injectors - 500
FMU - 200

There's your $6000 450hp SR right there.
BTW, the most I've ever heard for a red-top SR installation is around 4000.  Of course, what I gave was do-it-yourself, but then again, I did it myself, and it's pretty much the most frustrating thing you can do, but it's not the hardest.
