I posted this up in the boost and hybrid forums, as well as on EP hatch and K-Series, but I thought I would see if anyone here has any more ideas.

I've got a '02 Civic Si (EP3) with a Jackson Racing Supercharger on it. I've bought a K24A2 (TSX) motor and want to swap it into the EP3, and keep the S/C. Let me give you my current set up first.

2002 Honda Civic Si
Jackson Racing Supercharger
4.0" s/c pulley
RC 440cc injectors
Hondata K-Pro
AEM Cold Air Intake
DC Sports Shorty Header
Random Technology high-flow cat
Borla Cat back
ACT EDSS clutch
ACT Prolite flywheel
Quaife limited slip differential
Various suspension mods

I know that I need the passenger side motor mount from a CRV. I know I will need to use the throttle body from my EP. I plan on buying RC 650cc injectors depending on what other information I gather, but will my stock fuel pump supply them, or will I need to upgrade that with a Walbro or other brand pump?

One other potential problem I haI may need to get a different supercharger pulley, possibly the 3.4" pulley for the RSX-S, I have yet to decide on that. I plan on using the EP's transmission for now, but am keeping open the possibility of buying an RSX-s six speed at a later date.

This car is daily driven for now. I also auto-x regularly, and am trying to learn about road racing. Realistically I would like to get somewhere around 280whp out of this combonation.

Any and all ideas, suggestions, critisimes, and wild *** comments are appreciated. Among the many things I have yet to determine is the size of the K24A2 crank pulley in relation to the K20A3 pulley, and how that will affect the compressor speed and intake air temps. I am fairly certain I will be able to keep all the basic bolt ons listed above, but if anyone has any information to the contrary that would be good to know too.

I dont have any answers for you, but I wanted to say great job!!!

That things will be a monster and should be reliable.

 

I should have mentioned that I saw where Nossy has already done this, so I do know about the intake manifold issues with the cooling port on the TSX head.

Call Doug at Hondata. This swap has been done already by them and they can assist you

good ****..i wish i wasn't getting rid of my ep.

 

Da da ta ta taaaa, I'm lovin this

 

this is gonna be a BEAST of an ep.

 

whats the compatability between the headers on the TSX and the CRV. Which headers can be used with each.

 

anyone know if he's using the tsx ecu? Also I'm guessing you need the ep3 tb to eliminate the throttle by wire right?

I can't use the TSX ECU because of the throttle by wire. I'm using an EP3 ECU upgraded with K-Pro. And yes, I will be using the EP3 throttle body.

I've got the motor at the shop now, and am just waiting to build up a little money, and acquire some of the other parts I need. I should have this done by mid-May or so.

Thanks for the kind comments everybody. Its going to be a lot of fun.

 

Good luck! nice work.
