What would be better for a dirfting set up with about 230HP to the wheels? I want to do an SR swap but I dont want to have to pay all that money for the engine and installation. So would it be best if I built an all motor KA motor or would that cost alot of money for trial and eror? Please help me out here.

230whp out of a N/A 240 is possible, but will will be very spendy. That kind of power will need a great deal of headwork, high comp pistons . . more work beyond my knowledge :P

Unless you can do a whole lotta work yourself, the SR is going to be way cheaper. Sinse you mentioned paying for installation, your cheapest route would be turbo KA or SR.
