If you swap the k20a2 into a 2001 civic, do you have to buy a civic or rsx-s turbo kit? Or would you have to buy the rsx manifold n stuff for the engine, and the intercooler piping for a civic? what would be the best thing to do?

eh.... if u don't know that turbo kit are both engine specific and car specific... i don't think u are ready for a turbo or even a swap..... either way, u might to have custom some stuff due to the limited space in the civic engine bay compare to the rsx. since the kits are made for the rsx engine inside a dc5 chasis, so once u put it into the civic chasis, the placement and clearance of the engine would be different, so even tho. the kit might bolt on to the engine, but it might not fit inside the civic engine bay.
