Sorry if this is a repost.
if a normal aspirated b18c can handle 350-400whp, just imagine what an engine design for turbo can handle. i would guess that this engine is derived from the K24, so swapping would not be out off the picture. i know this is not the first turbo engine honda has made, but it is the first one to make it to state side and its swappable. yippee
BTW, i've been saving up for one of these since saw the first concept.

the first mod would be a FMIC and get rid of the tiny top mount IC.

If its based on the k-series, its gonna be simple to pull out of that and bolt into a eg with a mount kit. Use a k-pro (which can already ready read boost) and go.

exactly, you guys are missing the big picture. this could be the new hot swap and it's built for boost from the factory.
i've been following the development of this car for awhile but this is the first time i've seen the engine specs.

All the Civics use a MAP and MAF system now. If your swapping it or wanting to modify it, just use a older MAP only ECU and a jumper and don't worry about it.

I know it would be a kick *** swap, but it would just be nice of them to put it in a compact car that could compete with all the newer turbo compact cars out there.
