K20 or K24 swap owners need your input
I own several cars and it is time to focus my time on ONE build.
Cars I own:
90 Talon AWD Turbo
-20g Mitubishi turbo
-255 Fuel Pump with fuel pump rewire
-3" O2 housing, down pipe and exhaust
-720CC injectors
-3.5"GM MAFT
-Boost set at 15psi
-Stock intercooler
91 CRX Std
-D16Y7 (stock)
90 Honda Civic HB
-Stock
88 Honda CRX std
-Stock
99 Civic HB
-B16A2 swap (CTR cams everything else stock)
-Complete SI suspension swap
00 Civic Si
-Stock
My Dilemma:
I have replaced 3 transmissions on the talon, it is time to upgrade the beast but I don't want to fork out the huge amounts of money it will take to do that. If I push the limits of the turbo, the engine will have to be upgraded too. I will also have to upgrade the intercooler.
I love the DSM power but I hate how much money it takes to keep it together. Not to mention the amount of gas it drinks!!!
Hondas have been reliable since day 1, however I hate how easily I get walked on by EVOS and STIs.
The more I think about it, I want to shift to Hondas all together by swapping a K20 or K24 to any of my honda cars. I want a reliable beast!!! How fast are these swaps? From a roll, can they take on EVOs and STIs?
