when asking my tuner to get me more speed out of my ep3,
he suggested THESE as my FIRST options-
other mods not discussed (except Kpro which is getting done first)

1. getting the K24A2... "more torque, but will still have to modify it to make it noticably faster"
2. K20A2 head swap... "feels more like a true vtec, and some say more fun to drive"
3. turbo the K20A3... "most would say easiest, so it is the way to go, but its up to you"

He's done all 3 jobs, each have their own pro's n con's...
i'm still trying to decide which to do, which is why i'm reading this thread and responding.
but i'm done now, no new info has been submitted... Use the Force!
