There called Civic Type R.
Just swap your head, pistons, intake manifold, and ECU. You don't need to buy one.

You need to take your caps off buddy and there not the same, k20a has more HP and higher compression.

Re: trying to find a TRUE k20 (C-Zero)
go to japanstarmotors.com for either 4950 or 4650 depending if they are on special, the k20a3 in the EP3 is different than the one in the base RSX, because it has the same intake manifold as the type s and eps.

The issue's not clear cut, I'm afraid.
The British EP3 CTR has a slightly different motor from the Japanese EP3 CTR.
You're just going to have to be absolutely sure of what motor you're buying, or realise that those couple of horsepower aren't going to make much difference after you finish modifying it, anyway.

LOL... They sure like to make it complicated, don't they?
The difference in intake manifolds is the chief reason that the EP3 motor has a tiny bit less torque than the RSX base (CDM "Premium") motor. On the other hand, if you're doing a lot of modifying, you don't want the smaller primary intake runners, anyway.
