K20 Thailand model

now why didn't Honda put this engine in our cars in the first place? and Thailand models get this "unfair" advantage for D powered 7th gens. im still trying to calm myself down, thinking that it only comes with auto tranny....but still that engine is still a head start, of course we can get it swapped for a much powerful K. but why bother if you already have a K20. bolt-ons are easy to find.

Honda should do something about this!!

ak can only hope to improve
That engine might not be ULEV in the U.S.

Probably LEV, but honda loves to sport ULEV stickers on their cars.
