so i picked this thing up at the auto craft shop on fort Campbell. it doesn't run its been gutted of its interior, and its just begging for somebody to love it again. it has an SR20DET in it but its missing the harness and has been sitting for quite awhile. my plans for it so far are: 1) Get it running 2) find a bigger turbo and injectors 3) Drift it! IN all my online research its looking like i want to find a ball bearing t28 turbo and a set of 550cc injectors. i have the apexi SAFCII (not positive it came with the car) is that going to be enough to tune it? and is it possible to make 300HP on the stock internals?

anybody know if i can reuse the lower harness from the KA for the SR? also does anybody know where i can get a power steering pump for less than 100 bucks? im beginning to think that i should just bypass it...

i am beginning to think he was a complete idiot... a lot of the connectors are cut off where they shouldn't be the interior is pretty much all ripped out and he stopped responding to my calls and text messages about the title. so im beginning to think that the best plan is to go ahead and get it running and then swap everything into my gold coupe.

If all you want is 300whp I would just do a rom tune or nistune if you are looking for more later. I made 340/348 at 18-20psi with my 2871r with stock cams and intake with a JWT rom tune, 72lbers, and cobra maf.

Or you could sell it to me. I miss my 240:sad:

i am beginning to think nistune is my answer but it will probably be a hot minute before i get that far waiting on uncle sam to send me more monies. for now id just like to get it running and figure out if im gonna keep this one or get a new shell

Don't do that, they won't last. Keep your oem o2 in the turbo elbow and weld the wideband bung about 36" down stream of the turbo if you want it to last and read correctly. I ran a NGK afX like that for over 2 years and never had to replace the sensor.

are 740cc injectors too big? is there such a thing? would an SAFC even begin to compensate?

Better to look for a more abundant KA power steering pump.
