K24a1 + RSX-S Greddy Turbo kit = BOOSTED EM2
man if you lived near me, that would be one 7thgen i would hate to roll up on. i have a built k24 in my 7thgen sedan and take pretty much any civic around here out without a fight. i made 249whp n/a on the dyno last week. but 300+ will be retarted fast. but i can also rev to 8800rpm and have a custom tranny. are you using the base rsx trans or ep3? sorry i didnt read the last 2 pages. anyway, gl to you, keep us posted.

civiclxracer - Used the rsx-s intercooler kit. everything fit great.
2blu - may want to think about the a2 head. a2 has the ture i-vtec. 3 lobes vs 2.
Civicman1988 - car dynoed at 247whp and 212lb tq @ 7 psi. I want to go higher, but injectors is about maxed already.
wantaturbo - using a si tranny. I was going to get bigger injectors and do an a2 head swap. I will be sure at 300whp. But I figure, I just save some money and just get a sti.

awesome set up. im looking into trying to stuff a k24 from a tsx into the em2 now, cheap motor just tight working space.

you should be able to safly run 10psi. if the d block can handle it then sure a k24 can. with that and a retune -that would get you at 300 without the head swap.
I sure wish my car was newer

Wow. I don't know how I missed this thread, but when it's done, I'd love to meet up sometime and see this beast in real life.
Where are you in StL? I go to SLU and live downtown 3/4 of the year and I'm just across the river the rest of the time - near Belleville.
