yo my boy got an ef-9 and a k20 rsx motor,, he calledup hasport an there sending a special mounting kit that allows the engine to blot right in ,, hes goin k20 in an ef-9 with a ferriera valvetrain and some toda spec b cams, and some 9:1 je pistons, and he wants to put a revhard stage 2b kit on it with the to4e turbo with 60-1 trim. what do you think about this will it be worth it in the end?? what numbers u think hell push?? n do you think its a waste of time??and i also told him that the duration of the toda spec b cam wouldnt be good for turboing his k20 just to keep the stock cams in but what do u think???

Defi4nce has a little shameless behaviour in the past
K series are overated and overpriced.

Unless you own an RSX-S its a total waste of money imo.

Ive seen a RSX-S motor in an EG hatch. Wasnt very impressed.
It his money and his car so more power to him.

yes, an rsx is only a couple hundred pounds heavier than a civic. so he may run 9.6 stock...

is it a k20a2 or k20a3? if its a k20a2, then it was a waste of money for him to buy a motor with 11:1 c/r and put 9:1 c/r pistons in it. if its an a3, then it was wasted that he dropped the c/r only about .8...

all in all i agree with defi4nce, your boy just wasted alot of money. a built turbo b20 vtec would be soooo much more powerful, and cheaper
