anyone know honda engines? k20??

[matt walters]

thought id put this in this area as its not to do with starbos can be moved if the mods wish.

ive been looking at civics and tegs this week, came across a civic ep3 today thats had a bit of an engine re build.

it has a k20 head (stock from a ep3 yes?) and a k24 block from an accord type r.

the bloke selling it says with a map it should push 250 brake. does this sound realistic?

and yeah i have posted on civic life to ask there lol

any help much appreciated

 

[paddydel]

yeah k20 is about 200brake stanard lad so it could be lad

yea mate thats pretty realistic figures aw ur not getting rid of the starbo are ya?

 

[matt walters]

yeah mate, been on about it for a while. want a teg really, but gotta look at the balance havent i. its the same price for a 02/03plate ep3 as it is for a 18spec teg in half decent nick :/

cant be doing with sorting painwork out etc etc

 

[_iforget_glanza]

tegs are a really nice drive i hav to admit but id never get rid ov the glanzaaw i kno what ye mean man...

Like i said ok UKSC
figures are right and they use K24s for better torque but not as revy impo
but again as i said on uksc, it doesnt have a turbo, therefor its gay. Honda turbos are awsome

 

[matt walters]

honda supercharged are the way forward lol

i've seen a few with 250bhp but more often 220bhp is easily achieved.
