i am wanting to do a small turbo on my KA and i was wondering if it would
be alright if the engine has 150,000 miles on it. engine runs strong no leaks
nothing else is wrong with it. just wanting to put a small T25 or T28 turbo kit? what do you guys think? 7 psi at most.

 

anyone?

 

sounds fine, I would do a small t3t4

 

cool, thank you

 

Go with a t25 (Stock SR turbo.) Check comp. and make sure its even across the board. If all checks out, boost it.

 

+1 on that. check your compression make sure thats all good. you might even want to consider doing your head gasket seeing that most ka head gaskets go around that mileage

 

i really thank you guys for all the advice.

 

id do a t3/t4 on 7 pounds u may pop the head gasket but if u do then just put in another one and ull be fine, and make sure u do the timing and tuning right, and most importantly have fun

 

i got friends with 200k s14's boosting more then that...take ur time becarefull and ull b fine

 

u should be ok...make sure u have it tuned, even if u go get a safc2..one of the most important steps in boosting is tuning..check out the sticky about ka-ts that'll give u some good tips
