lmao, keep reving that thing past 8500 Everyone that builds those knows the k20 pumps are not good past 8500 (stock bearly past 8200) cam oiling is also ----. Modded s2000 pumps are the way to go. also you should do the -4 fitting and tap the oil rail for more oil to the cam caps so it doesnt end up eating your cam away on #5.

Random Hero I am only reving to 8600 RPM it just looks alot higher due to the tach being off a little reving that high. When I go turbo I will only rev to 8200.

Answering your question accordepicenter

Well it was about $6500 to $7500 total cost (can't quite remember) and the hardest part was the wiring and getting the K-Series wiring harness through the firewall. The biggest bitch was waiting for all the parts to arrive.

untrue I could fund a swap right now like ---- all. Its just you can make way more power for way less and have way less headaches with a b series in that car. You will find out when you go for boost. I wouldn't convert my eg from the b to a k if you did it for free and I got to keep my b. Not hating just laying it out for you.

Sorry it just seemed like alot of people were attacking me just b/c I am a noob here. I am not a noob to cars or to Honda. I am a Honda Service Technician and worked at a dealership for over 1 1/2 years. I am also a moderator over at SuperHonda. I am a nice guy and just trying to get the right info for what I am trying to do and I think this is a GREAT site to get it. Just want to do something different where I live b/c it seems alot of people here (my town) are scared of F/I and it took my friend Sean (rexsk8er) to show me how easy everything could be done. I mean he took a 86 CRX with a D16A1 (stock) and built a homemade turbo kit and his car will kick 90% of the cars asses around my town. I have a K and I want to turbocharge it......It will make more power and it will be faster. I am ready for these headaches. If I do it right the first time (which is why I am here) alot of these headaches can be avoided.

That's how we roll. If Jesus Christ signed up here and made a thread like this we'd flame his punk ***, too. We don't discriminate.

Nice car......punk bitch. :P

It is always nice to see somebody do something different for a HMT system, just because its not the way I would do it or the easiest doesn't make it wrong so good luck on it. Remember though k20's are for bitches and HMT owns you
