Kinda funny both of those posts are closed. A shame that people can't just get along on these boards. Honda vs Honda is just fucked up, can't we just hate domestics and hold hands and sing Kum-bya (or however you spell it)?

To stay on topic, I was thinking about a swap instead of boost in the future. K24a1 w/ k20a2 head, instead of just the complete K24a2 swap. It's cheaper I heard and just as good. Though I know nothing of the k24 engines, going off what others from ephatch.com have said about their k24 swaps.
