Much, *much* quicker rack in the PAS Ka.



It`s like owning a narrowbody 155 and thinking it`s as good as a widebody

one, saying Ka`s without power are crap.

It`s only the same as as the Lampredi lump, except the Ka one passes

emissions regs.

I`m sure they could get a Lampredi through emissions, but it`s not worth

the effort as the turbo 5 potter is capable of much bigger outputs.
