J swap del sol
So I'm doing a j series swap in my del sol, I got the hasport v2 mounts, the 6 speed TL tranny and a j30a1 engine. But it only has 200hp/tq wich is pretty lame for the amount of work I'm doing. I looked into the j32 that makes 270 and can make much more easy, but then I have to sacrifice my hood. It's like 3 inches taller

J35A4 from the 02-04 odyssey is the engine you want. 240 base hp and uses the type S heads and cams from the J32A2 and cable throttle body. Honda tuning had one in an eg that made 267whp with just a CAI. They are in self service junkyards everywhere.
The 270 hp J32A3 from the 04-05 TL is drive by wire throttle with single square port exhaust heads.

That article is pretty good, but one glaring falsehood is it claims the only TL 6-Speed manual transmissions came from Type-S models. Kind of funny, my non-Type-S has a 6-Speed Manual.

Re: J swap del sol
As many times as I’ve read that article, you’d think I had seen that before. I’m happy to learn that for sure as I’ve got a j30a4 in my EK and am looking into FI. I really don’t want to boost the J30 because of the frm liners, so this piece of info lets me know some good stuff! Could do J32 with those J35 heads and cams...
