Has Greddy released its turbo yet and is th XS engineering turbo faster or a s13 sr20det?

Gredy has not released the turbo kit fot our car yet.But as far as axs-enginnering and an sr20det its whatever you choose.The enging can handel up to 14psi from what i hear but then again i am not sure and if you want to get some power outof you car witha turbo put together a homemade kit not hard to do.It is cheeper that way as well.I belive the ka engine can run 10psi with stock internals without a problem.But that imo on turbo setup.

IIRC TY in AZ is running 13psi on his KA (FMAX stage 2) with 550 cc injectors and a stock bottom end.

It's a lifelong question: SR vs. KA. Some people like the torque and the powerband of the KA, some like the SR. The truth is that you'll be making the same power with lower psi-s with a turbo on your KA as the other person will with their SRs. This is what I've noticed at least.

As far as KA turbo kits go: Beissen is right.  You'll probably come off with more money in your pocket if you do it yourself. However, when you buy a ready kit from a company, you always have a place to go with questions and anything else that might bother you. But again, if you have experience with KAs and turbo applications, then you should be bothered with that.

hey my one question on a KA vs. SR is would the sr have more of a top end?  the KA would rev out, wouldn't it?

you really cant compare the 2 because one has a T04 and the other has a T25 tubine which are totally different.

errr wrong. KA turbo setups use T3/T4 hybrids not T04's

GReddy's using a TD06, XS (as well as F-Max) is using a T3/T4.
