Got my welder back all functional, finished welding up the one primary tube for the drivers side header, then my damn argon bottle ran out of gas, tacked the tubes together where the collector goes using C-25, haha. Tomorrow time for a bottle fill and probably start on the pass side header

full on track cars can take a lot more liberties with shit than a street car. bell bottom kits and crazy wheel fitment look cool sliding on a track, but when i want to drive to taco bus, im going to ruin all of that shit. so it just doesnt work for me. function over fashion.

^ A t28 ka-t on 12 psi will be extremely responsive. I would estimate that a healthy ka should make anywhere between 250-275hp tuned properly with a tubular manifold. (These numbers also depend on the t28 you use...) If you want to make 300hp easily, get a t3/t04e 50 trim. I didn't want to deal with the headaches associated with a ball bearing turbo setup on a ka. (Water lines/no rebuild kits/crappy bottom mount manifolds/etc.)

How much do you have into your whole setup?

I spent a decent amount of $$$ on my setup... my motor is stock, but it holds up to 15psi abuse (on a 50 trim...) just fine. PROPER TUNING IS KEY! Pm me if you want details on a decent budget ka-t setup.
