Salt in the wound dude!!! lol

I’m pretty sure the engine’s good, the installer was the main problem. So many shortcuts. Oh, I just found out today while under the car he also decided to take my A/C compressor. lol wtf

I could’ve sworn it was there last year.

SR is cheaper. Easier. Simpler. Made for boost

KA is awesome! More expensive. More complicated. Simply put; it was not made for boost.

They were completely different. The KA was mad torquey but was lacking in the top end. The SR lacks torque but has a good top end. Keep in mind, I only had a T25 KA-T.

Also, heat soak seems less prominent on the SR and it feels much more willing to rev. Overall, I prefer the SR.

i’d say only 6-7 psi on something that wasn’t rebuilt. but, every engine is different. i think they were just covering their own asses myself.

This should be a picture poll. As in you can only legitimately vote once you have posted a picture of your motor set. Makes for a much more accurate poll.

Happy to see SR’s are winning:)
