Look at you, all Super Mod, driving Skylines + drifting! Haha, been a long time man, good to see you're still active in the community.
Thanks; I'm trying to get more progress, but more stuff has to be shipped over at the moment...it's like pulling teeth just waiting.

Goodness! I think you were running a t2 flanged turbo with emanage or something.
What kind of numbers are you putting down, and also...do you not recommend going with a t2 flanged turbo? I was running recirculated with problems trying to vent atmospheric back then...I never got around to doing anything more before I sold it.
Sigh, looks like it's going to be more long nights of reading for me! Hahaha. KA-T.org here I come.

Lmaooo. Ya'll crack me up.
Me, I think I'm staying KA-T, I just want to keep it relatively the same; sure it's not original, but I guess it's not hard work either.
HOWEVER...I am looking at trying to get into the upper 300whp range. Possible on stock internals? Wait, I mean RELIABLE on stock internals for long? Additionally, possible with a t2 flanged turbo, or do you suggest just going top mount and t3/t4?
Let me know when you get back in JDM land...so I can get stuff off you from Junk yards...ahaha.

"ok"
With the amount of ROM tunes etc out you can safely get over 300 these days. The down fall of the KA internally is its ring lands (pistons). Swap those out and may as well do the rods and you are good to go. As you know I had an SAFC controller and I had no issues after getting a wideband guage. I'm personally not with this v8 movement but do what you can.

When I was doing my personal research before going to Japan. I was going to get the full AMS KA kit. came with everything you needed to making your motor beyond reliable with a good tune. At the time it was 1700 for everything.
