uh.

not in a 4 banger, or most at least.

turbo creates torque.

260hp 200 torque NA motor, all upper rpm power.
260hp 250 torque FI motor, power acrossed most of the rpm band

might not matter for a drag car when you're in the uppers all the time but on the street torque owns

$3800 for complete OMG JDM WTF Type-S swap, plus mounts, was my pgmfi.org hookup six months back. i-VTEC is worth half of that, maybe. That i- ---- won't come into play with a turbocar unless you bog it - whoopty doo 5 whp more in a non-performance low rpm range - and the engine moves too fast for it to mean anything in a turbo car until top of 3rd *if you're slow*. That VTEC ---- has always been worthless.

Enjoy the gearbox falling apart and good luck getting it fixed under warranty.

Yes... I'm a hater...

Eventually K series is going to be a lot cheaper. As soon as some rsx's get wrecked there will be plenty. ive been looking for a k series crv block, if i find one, ill throw a motor together.
