Question Can a stock ka24de handle a turbo?

Yeah...I am about to buy a '95 240sx (s14), and i was wondering if a stock ka24de can handle a turbo. And if anybody has a suggestion for a specific brand of turbo and intercooler...please feel free to suggest!!!!! Happy drifting

Yes, it can handle a turbo dont expect a 300+ whp car on stock internals though. Search, there are a ton of threads on KA-T. Also, go to KA-T.org tons of info on this subject. There is also a budget way to turbo your car using an Egay manifold, stock SR turbo and SR side mount intercooler, I'm sure I'm forgeting something but it can be had for less than $1k. Good luck.

just run a t25 with all of the sr parts(stock) itll run you about $700-800 and you can run on like 7 psi safely.
