If the K were cheap you'd see a lot more people pulling some big numbers... Bigger than B series. Give it time.

well i got a friend who is running an LSvtec witha fully built bottom end and built head pushing about 216 to the wheel all motor.. but look at how much work had to be done just to get his car to do that.. with a K however, basic bolt-ons with k-pro can get you there easily. with a lot more room to go for all-motor...

but i think the only reason why people still would rather stick with Bseries is that parts are literally a dime a dozen. Its still expensive for K parts but its well worth it in the end
