pdm racing has really really good stuff for sohc and dohc KA motors.... as far as spring go and that kinda stuff, you dont need it unless you rev over 7 grand (which the KA should NEVER do). if you do need valves and stuff, race engineering has good stuff. if u need websites hit me up because i can't remember them.

the ka can handle 7 grand. thats only 100 over redline. the rev limiter is at like 7300 or 7400. but there really is not point in taking the car that high. it duzn' t make any power after like 6 grand.

if you drive the ka to 7 grand regularly you're gunna be replacing your head components every other week... i asked the guys at pdm a long time ago and they said the same thing... no springs, you dont need em cause you're not revving that high, and if you do, have fun replacing your springs and valves like crazy.
