I have a type-s and i was thinking about doing some mods to it,but need your help.There is a complete K24 short block on Ebay with a starting bid at $100 and i was told that it would make a big difference to car's performance.I want to know if you guys would recomend it for a N/A setup?
well...yes I would...but what exactly is your mechanical background? This swap requires that you pull your motor, take the head off of your motor, trans planting that on the K24 bottom end with the RBC (K24) intake manifold. It's a good swap for people that have done a few builds but it's no novice swap!
you will also need a fair amount of supporting mods...such as FULL motor mounts, LSD, Exedy Stg. 1 clutch will work as long as you get your flywheel resurfaced, a race header, and a good exhaust (preferably one of the 3" variety), and an injen CAI will make life alot easier as well.

It's expensive but do-able.
The RBC is not the K24 intake manifold, the RBB is the K24a2/3/4 (TSX, CRV, Element) intake manifold. You need no aftermarket items as listed above by Turbo-K. K-pro would be the only thing you need to make sure the motor is running correctly. Now you would need either the K24 out of the Element or the TSX for your head to work on the block, as the pistons have the proper valve reliefs for the higher profile lobe. A block out of an Accord or a CRV will not work.
