Default EK K20A swap with engine bay wire tuck....

Just finished up another K20A engine swap in an EK Coupe with Tuck.......Relocated the battery, Fusebox, Daytime running light control unit, and more....Car is a Canadian model....Deleted the ABS, Power Steering, and A/C. Also did a 99-00 CTR Climate control conversion....

Here is an update on what parts were used for performance gains....

Hondata K-Pro
RCrew Header
Canton Meca Fuel Filter
MagnaFuel Fuel Pressure Regulator
Toda Cams with Toda Valve springs and supertech retainers
Custom RedZone Exhuast piping with Apexi muffler
BDL Throttle Body with Throttle body prot matched intake manifold

Some other custom parts made by RedZone include our new redesigned Shifter box
It allows the Stock cup holders and center console to be used and uncut in anyway.

RedZone Throttle Cable Kit to allow use of a shorter throttle cable.

RedZone Radiator Brackets, to allow the use of the RSX/EP Radiator

Modified the Heater control vavle sot he heater hose can point to the left side of the car rather then the right.

RedZone Battery Relocation with full wire tuck and battery mount......with battery terminals on passanger side

Just wanted to share....comments good or bad are welcome....
