i dont think anybody has taken their k20 civic to the track yet. its prolly just a little faster than the rsx's times because our civics are lighter.

It should be around mid-14's with a good driver.

hmm how about the down time of swapping K20 vs down time of installing a turbocharger?

carbonrevo has a little shameless behaviour in the past
for those of you who know about cybernation motorsports. they do customize turbo for k20 engine, they do stage I, stage II and stage III so if you do swap the k20 into civic you and put stage III turbo kit on k20 including internals (cause kit comes with everything) I saw one just with that setup on the magzine running 542 whp.

2002 civic EX Coupe = 542whp?? That is SICKKKKKKK. Remember not only k20 engine will last forever also the engine itself is design handle high turbo boost especially with those internal setup. 542whp setup will last you forever.

K20 swap $6000-$7000
Cybernation Stage III kit $8995

PS. Oh yea, I forgot to mention there is a stage IIII available too. LOL make it sickerrrrrrrrrrrr

Instead of going with the cybernation stage III kit. It'll be a lot cheaper going custom.
The main advantage cybernation had was their fuel management. Now that Hondata came out,its a lot easier to make a custom turbo kit with quality parts, then pay for their kit.

yes.

If there is someone that is serious about doing a swap soon, and are looking for a good price on a motor, I have one. I have a K20A2 with HASport mounts, HASport Axles, AEM CAI, header downpipe and cat, short shifter, ECU, wire harness, etc.. all for $4000. Considering these motors are going for $3500, and you will spend $1000 just on the Mounts, and Axles I have listed, this is a good price. I bought the motor for $4000 shipped when I got it, so Im losing bunches of money on it to get rid of it.
Hit me up with a PM if you are serious.

If you don't mind me asking, why are you selling such a cool setup? Didn't you just install it?
