lsj+k04=?
wooow, I think so far, I have a little south of 700 bucks into it, Dude on here is selling me a saab intake mani for a decent price, and still need to find an elusive lnf exhaust manifold

My only comment is, even though you are making the same power TVS and K04, that TVS car is going to pull on that K04 car. The powerband is the difference. K04 is a really peaky powerband. Like a mountain. Just check the dyno thread. Supercharged cars have such a flat powerband.
Just depends on what you want though really.

do you really think a bigger wheel on the intake side would cause compressor surge?

increasing exhaust flow to alleviate the pressure on the turbine wheel, problem is the turbine is usually the restriction.

Dont believe anyone has done a k04 lsj swap, me and jimboss are the first one, slight difference between lnf and lsj's, lsj have higher compression, which should result in more torque, we have a better flowing head then the lnf esp me with a ported head. The bad news, we dont have vvt like the lnf cars or direct injection, these I believe, are two main reasons why the lnf is such a potent platform. But if I dont achieve the numbers I am looking for, no biggie, baldturbofreaks has a big wheel upgrade for the lnf k04 that should be lulz
btw good lucky finding someone to trade your head for a k04, I have been trying to sell min for over a month for pennies and all I keep getting is low-balled, these ****** kids on here want good parts for basically free
