For a N/A setup...you can easily get 240whp outa a stock k-series with just bolt ons. It takes a really bling setup in a b-series to make that same power.

For N/A id rock a k-series. For turbo, id rock a b-series.

Of course..i dont have either of those. d-series+turbo = cheap performance.

if money permits k series all the way, but forget the potential of a b series, yes a k responds veryw ell to bolt ons but with the extra money you save on not buying the k series you could invest in itb's or some nice parts for your b series..... my .02

Exactly if you have money it has enormous amount of potential but its so damn expensive. Probably going to need at least $7 grand for swap to get it running, but that is probably around the same amount of money needed to build a monster NA b-series.
