It's DOHC and sounds like a Honda motor

As far as aftermarket support goes, the K's aren't quite up to the B's level. although, K-series motors have been known to put out over 200whp using all OEM parts. that's something nobody could say about the B-series. correct me if i'm wrong, but i think the highest power an all motor B-series has put out using all OEM parts is somewhere around 180-190whp.

Hasn't someone laid down 200whp on ITR cams in a B18C in R form?

Also, if we're talking about the K24 that's in the TSX, I think that engine is intake only VTEC AFAIK.
