uh...you need to re-tune the ecu so you don't detonate the motor to death under any form of positive intake pressure.

dont see any real reason why turboing a KA would be any harder than any other motor....


is a stanza just another name for a pintara?

If you are turbocharging your car, take it to a workshop that has experience in these types of modifications, and to properly tune your computer, you really need it in the car and on a dyno where the mechanic can play around with it for a few hours making sure that the new tune will not destroy your engine in any situation.
nothing.

lol teamnse.

lol @ mechanic comment, half of us on here can install turbo gear for half the price of a workshop and there is some people on here who can offer tuning solutions for again something like half price of anywhere else.

it's not very hard or expensive, you just need to WANT to do it.
Don't let the opinions of the average man sway you. Dream, and he thinks you're crazy. Succeed, and he thinks you're lucky. Acquire wealth, and he thinks you're greedy. Pay no attention. He simply doesn't understand.

to be fair, it wouldn't be ANTRX if we stayed on topic.

and if someone wasn't cranky at Chr1s for something he said...

stanza = pintara = corsair = U12 chassis.

Sorry, but many have beaten you to it.

SleepaTi's KA24DET in his U12 Pintara Ti is a prime example.

I know that, I just thought that it didn't sound like he knew much about turboing, and if he didn't I figured I'd give him the noob answer, for the sake of his engine.
