k24 Turbo Concern
I've done some reading, and a basic k24a2 with I/H/E is pushing inbetween 240 and 260 whp, which is really nice NA daily driver. However, I want some big bragging rights
And I would like to drag race and have the power.
So I was thinking, if I was to overbore the 2.4 to 2.7 or 2.8 and resleeve, new pistons/rods, and turbo the bish with a t-66, would I even have a streetable car? Like would I even hook up?
I know an LSD and some traction bars would help...
Anyone have some insight?

club rsx.com has a pretty good writup on the differences between different stage turbo kits...this may give you a baseline if you are going to do a custom turbo.. also talk to import builders or golden eagle about sleeving.. who knows you might get the guineepig price...
whatever you do it will be a sweet car...
you also may want to look into an lsd..

I hate to inform you, but the K24A2's aren't pushing 260 whp with I/H/E. In fact there are some that are pushing that much power, however they are running with upgraded internals and upgraded cams. I don't see you being able to safely go beyond about a 2.6 liter engine, even with sleeves, and a T-66 on a Honda is the very definition of unstreetable.
You also have to consider things like the rod ratio of the K24. Like the LS blocks, the rod ratio doesn't favor revving. A turbo would make crazy power, however I'd look at a much smaller turbo that started to make power at a much lower engine speed.

Is Dart even making a K series block? I was under the impression that they were only offering the B series blocks.
