First in car mock up… Heat protection is gonna be crucial but everything fits good. Hood clearance is an issue gonna lower the motor 1/2 inch ![http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/qq34/ka24monster/GotHolset2.jpg](http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/qq34/ka24monster/GotHolset2.jpg) ![http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/qq34/ka24monster/Gotholset.jpg](http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/qq34/ka24monster/Gotholset.jpg) ---

Nice build! Those Holset turbos are seriously spool happy. Plan on running Meth injection? It will Definatly help if your planning on running pump gas. ---

I would definetally run meth injection on this bad boy. Although it is a built platform detonation can definetally ruin this badboy. Is that an IAP turbo kit? If so we have one on a KA-T at our shop and we had some issues with the restriction of the manifold. Also see that it is a 38mm wastegate, you dont think that its going to be to small for this application? We had a 38mm wastegate on the KA-T with the T3/T4 turbo we have and it maxed out the wastegate and made the boost creep on the dyno. Just some things to look into. Im interested in this build as there is not enough KA-E’s out there…lol Get back to me on those questions, and good luck with the build, looks good so far! ---

Nice build!!! I like, we need to line up at the track summer time. Keep a extra coil in the car, trust me My coil died while I was going down the track. ---

Thanks Peter n Vlad n the rest of you guys for the positive feedback. > [@holy smokes.](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/holy-smokes/19768/10): > > Build looks good …got brakes? > > Where will you be tracking this thing or is it a street car? 🙂 I’ll be tracking her at TMP but I’ll be trailering her down… although she does have plates on her still! 😃 > [@240less..](#): > > Nice build!

Wish I could have drove a holset powered ka before I started just to get a taste… Thats funny you asked that… my Mac tools distributor mentioned I should run meth the other day when we were shooting the shit. > [@B. Hebert](#): > > Is that an IAP turbo kit? If so we have one on a KA-T at our shop and we had some issues with the restriction of the manifold.

We had a 38mm wastegate on the KA-T with the T3/T4 turbo we have and it maxed out the wastegate and made the boost creep on the dyno. Yep thats an IAP Manifold. Finding a manifold for this motor took a little research and once that was done there weren’t many to pick from lol … it was the best quality one I could get that suited my needs, I thought about making my own manifold but I got a good deal on this one with a few extra other parts so. A lot of guys are just running log manis with these turbos and they don’t seem to have any problems. I’m hoping I don’t run into any problems with the 38mm if I do i’ll roll with the punches. > [@draggone](#): > > Nice build!!! I like, we need to line up at the track summer time. Keep a extra coil in the car, trust me My coil died while I was going down the track. Thanks man, for sure man I’ll line up 😉 If you’re talking about my MSD blaster in that last pic up above, I’m not gonna be using it. LS1 coils FTW ---
