Wrong, KAs power band is lower in the rpm range than the SR since it's higher displacement and onger stroke. It also has less rpm availability than the SR. Therefore, the SRs powerband lies in the upper range since it's a small displacement 4-banger, making it's powerband higher in the rpm scale than the KA.
