Re: k20a3

a3 with hondata reflash is not bad. prolly about the same power as a stock a2 type-s motor.

Re: k20a3

nope i was wrong, hondata flashed a3 makes quite a bit MORE torque and hp than stock a2.

from hondata.com both engines are manuals tested on dyno. unless you get to 6-7k rpms, the a2 loses.
