i am also wanderin about the bottom end in the k24 what are my options with building it i looked around a lil bit and found a few odds and ends but i'm not sure what the best parts are to put in it

 

what do you want from the bottom end and over all motor?

 

i'm looking to get the most i can out ot the engine and still be able to jump in it and drive it on a trip and not worry about it coming apart and possibly running it boosted later on. i'm also looking to run a k20a2 head

 

Well if you're going to boost it you don't want a very high compression ratio, which equals not nearly as much power as you could run without a turbo. You could trade off and go with a mid range compression ratio to get something like stock power levels or a little better and then when the turbo goes on you're already built. Any K-swap in a crx that is running correctly should be significantly faster than stock whether it's turbo or not. You could get into the 12's without a turbo on a "daily driveable" K-RX. You need to PM CRXBart and talk to him about the K-RX. He probably has more insight on this topic than others.
