whats going on fellas? Im tryna get into the k series. I got like 4000 grand saved up got a lil while to go before i can afford the full swap... so im tryna make my decision... between k20a2 n k20a3 or matts fav the k24a2..... i wanna run boost.. so iono if the k20a2 n k20a3 realle makes a diff if ima bore it 30 over and do the full rebuild..i just want sugguestions what you guys are running and if i can put a a2 head on the k20a3 with a fully built k20a3 bottom... will it be some what the same at the k20a2 fully built iono any suggestions would b highly appreciated cuz i can get a k20a3 for a decient price... just checking thanks.

 

There would be no point to run a K24a2 with a turbo. What benefits the K24a2 is it's higher compression. To run boost, you'd want lower compression.

Check k20a.org for some more helpful tips.

 

You could swap the k20a3, and then turbo it. I am in the process of saving up for k20 also, preferably the a2, but the price increases almost exponentialy from the a3 to the a2. I wonder what is a decent/avg price that someone should pay for either motor..

Uh, no point other than making good amounts of power. Moderate amounts of boost on stock K24A2 internals will yield very good results, especially having a nice torque curve and 2400cc to spool up the snail.

To run MORE boost SAFELY, you want lower compression. But there's nothing a good tune and good management can't fix.

It'd still have a much shorter lifespan than a lower compression engine, and wouldn't yield as high of a gain.

 

if u want boost, go with k24a1. a guy did 10s on his turbo k24a1 earlier last month, stock motor for the most part.

Your wasting your time on this site then.... also wasted your time typing out ;-) when you just could have typed out

 

lol this is an expensive love/sport... you gotta spend money to get what you want i want a k series its looking like the k24 is the way to go so you got that wit cams and boost...

 

it's definitely $$$$$

 

lol well yea i knew that from the get go...i know ima be spending at least 20k to have the motor fully built with turbo n everything else

 

Defenetlly worth the money if you ask me. I would do it again and again if I had to start over. It would be even cheaper if I knew then what I know now. I would have never wasted my money on some other stuff.

 

yea thats how it is you learn as you go... and the real bitch is the labor.... gotta learn to do it your self and you'll save alot more money....

This isn't really accurate. High compression motors on boost make great power with less boost. Proper tuning and water/meth and you would have great numbers on the type R.

the k20a2 is 11.1 compression and there are alot of guys boosting making sick numbers.

10:5:1 compression isn't really that high for the k24a2.

If it were me I would go with the k24 block with a k20a2 head.

just my 2 cents...
