Default 181whp from a k20a3

Think of it as the redheaded stepchild throwing a tantrum. I'm proud to say I'm the first tuner to break 180whp on a stock block, stock head casting k20a3 motor NATURALLY ASPIRATED!

The ultimate goal is to break 190whp with the k20a3 motor.

You're thinking of the k20a2 motor. that makes 200 crank hp stock. I'm working with the k20a3, rated at 160hp at the crank from the factory.

The reason I'm pursuing this is b/c the k20a3 motor can be had for very little $$$ in many cases less than 1g for a long block.

Any plans to try these cams on an accord, element, or CRV K24?

it's a factory long block aside from the cams & valvetrain. I've never cracked the head or oilpan.

So that's 9.8:1 if you don't know the k-series compression numbers off hand.

I would love to. If you know of anyone in my area let me know! I need someone with k-pro. K-pro is a must for r&d.
