KA built for 700HP I'd love to see some dyno sheets after you turbo it. Most turbo'd KA's even with forged internals push like 400whp-450whp. |

And, it won't be pushed to 700hp. I will be around 500+ once I go to my next set up. The motor can handle 700whp max unless I go through my internals again. With this set up I'll be in the 300hp area for now. My hood flew up on me about a month ago and that is why my hood has changed as well. My bumper got destroyed from train tracks about 3 weeks ago and that's why that is also a different color. I do have a buddy who is building a ka right now that will hover around the 800hp+ range. I'm not 100% sure when it will be finished, but when it is, I will definitely post it for you with dyno sheets. |

500 on a KA is pretty damn risky. KA's can be ticking time bombs. Goodluck with the build. Keep us posted |

They're ticking time bombs if not built properly or more important, if you have a bad tune. Any motor is a ticking time bomb without good parts and a great tune.
And thanks for the positive feedback everyone! I'll get a parts list going sometime soon along with more photos. |

yeah good luck with a KA with 500 hp. I've never heard of one going that high with power so I don't know how reliable they are |

The same friend who is building the one for 800hp threw together a frankenstien KA lasting him 2 years of contstant drift events and making 400whp.
Here's a nasty dual cam build for you as well (; youtube.com/watch?v=rGOBnIYeCbE |

That's just it. Everybody ditches them, so I decided to be different and build the KA. In my opinion SRs are complete junk and I still hold this down. My mechanic at the shop I go to which is the shop I work at now, he built my motor and I broke it in then we raced against eachother when he was SR and he blew his SR racing my freshly built KA. <.< I felt like that was a sign that I chose the right path. lol
If this Ka decides to blow up, I will be going either 1jz, 2jz, or any LS that I can get my hands on that is in decent running condition. |
