acura type R engine
Yea im new on this forumn so dont treat me like an *******, but I will understand if u do. My question is how much of a horsepower difference is there from an RSX type S engine than a type R engine. I just hydrolocked my engine and need a new one so i am wondering if it is worth mony to buy a type R. Or if anyone has a better suggestion for an engine i should buy.Thanks alot

Its 220 vs 200. But considering a Hondata reflash would put an A2 right there, I don't think its worth it. Especially if you need parts later down the line.... its easer to get them for a US motor in the US.
I'm not too sure why this is in the suspension forum, so IBTM

Rep Power: 374 ITR K20 swap isnt worth it unless youre really **** about JDM stuff. There are quite a few of k20s for sale, some located in the for sale forum.

Here they are....
High compression pistons
Limited slip differential
Better gearing ( better final ratio)
Better flowing intake mani, & exhaust mani on TOP of the head & cams
Once we get done with my swap we are gonna do the Hondata programmable ECU. Say hello to 8800 RPM Redline!!!
Hey fly i was always under the impression that it was 9800 RPM Redline. I don't remember where i read it though it was a Spec site. I may be wrong though. I'll try to get a link.
