VEEDUBBED 0 Posted October 16, 2009 Welcome aboard matey :D Grab the head off the KR mill along with it's cams and bolt it onto the 9Ablock,change the pistons to forged jobbies and then turbo the bugger. Have fun!. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CazzaVR 0 Posted October 17, 2009 Probably around 15bhp. You'd see a bit more if you got it gas flowed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erny 0 Posted October 21, 2009 If ya engines running fine then don't disturb your 9a head, there's very little difference in the heads, the kr will higher compression on a abf but not on a 9a so no real noticeable gains, put the inlet cam from th kr in, kr and 9a exaust cams are the same, you can put an abf exaust cam in tho. Check if your kr inlet manifold is the lager 50mm one that came on the early krs if so swap that for the 42mm one you will more than likely have on ur 9a, if ur not strapped for cash hang onto pretty much all the parts off the kr as most are fine for the 9a and will save ya money wen owt of urs fails, send ya kr head off for a port an polish wen ya have a few quid spare, otherwise just swap the kr inlet cam n sell the kr, there's loads of good 16v info on clubgti. I've been Geeking it up loads on there lately as I'm rebuilding a 9a top to bottom, and also have a kr lying around. and wanna squeeze everyting I can outta it.
