Hey guys,
it's been a minute since I've been on, but I'm back now. Plannin on bein pretty active again.
Not much has changed for the KA lately, due to my still very existant lack of a job. I'm gettin closer though. Nobody hires 17 year olds.
I've come to the realization that I'm going to have to completely rebuild the KA before the boost comes. I have a friend that's giving me everything I'd need to build a SOHC for free. He has everything except pistons, rods, the block, oil pan, and power steering pump. I have another friend that can sell me a block. Since I'll be building it outside of the car I'm planning on going ahead and getting forged internals and all that jazz. That'll probably bring the build a little closer to 300hp. I'll update you guys as it comes. Sorry for my recent extended absence...lol

Possible change of plans.
I may sell the wastegate and T25 and buy an internally gated T3. Or keep the WG, sell the T25, and buy a Externally gated T3....havent decided what I really wanna do yet...
suggestions? I may run 10-12psi now as well
