I have a new si and I would like to get the same performance specs as the DC5 type Rs motor. Would it be more practical to do the full engine swap or just to do the internal work to upgrade the existing k20? What would be the likely difference in the price of the RSX type R motor and what I could get for my SI motor with 3000 miles on it? And one last qhestion, does anyone know exactly what internal upgrades would have to be made to match the Type R's engine performance?
Any help would be a great help

 

Turbo, Revhard or Cybernation

 

I'm not really sure what that reply means, elaborate if you don't mind.
Also, I should have included this before, but do you know if allof the differeces in the rsx type r and si engines are in the head and if so, would a head swap be a viable option? What would the price difference in a head swap (ecu and transmission too of course) and a full engine swap be?
Thanks.

 

just get the dr5-r engine

How about buy the DC5-R engine and sell your engine right now. Anyone know the going price for a K20A3?

 

i've seen them for 1500-3000 on ebay
