I'm sure a lot of you hybrid guys have thought about doing the k20 swaps but are turned off by the high cost of the motor. type-s motor goes for 3g on the cheap side of things. type-r goes for 5g.

You can get a k20a3 for less than 1g.

what happens when you run a k20a3 with cams i/h/e UNTUNED in a 2002 civic si with full interior v.s. a gs-r with JG head, skunk2 stage II cams, i/h/e, tuned to 9000+rpm redline?

see for yourself.

RIGHT CLICK SAVE-AS

now imagine that in a 2200lb eg . . .

budget k-series hybrid has arrived.

 

with the extra .2L of the k20, and the B series out of production and becoming more rare every day,

maybe k20a3 turbo will take the place of the LS turbo setup as the most cost efficient way to build a quick honda??

Once mounts and axles from hasport are less than $1,000.

one day.... one day...

 

The Hybrid-Racing full billet mounts go for $600 and the Stage 1 axles for for $400...that equals $1,000. I'm pretty sure the hasport stuff is equally priced. The big part of the k-swaps isn't so much the mounts/axles...it's all the other smaller parts that add up to the cost.

Does that EP3 have any ET's or any HP numbers?

 

where can u find the K20A3 for around $1000? doesnt sound bad if thats the case.

 

hahah until i see proof of these mods on both vehicles i dont believe it. there is no way a ep would beat a gsr with those mods unless he was shifting b4 vtec

how about if the ep3 had just shy of 180whp, and a 6spd tranny with a shorter final drive? oh, and did I mention a 10+ft-lb torque advantage throughout?

 

yeah it gets costly, try doing the k24a2 swap.
