So i bought a 2003 Civic Si yesterday, and ive already been bitten by the bug.
I want more power. I was thinking about swapping an a K20a2 motor with the 6 speed transmission. Is this doable? The only thing i think would be an issue is the fact that the Si has the dash mounted shifter (which still feels akward, but i guess ill get used to it) and the type-s doesnt. Not sure how the linkage would work with that.
I also want to install the TODA Engine Kit. Which brings me to another question. Would a k24 Block (specifically K24a2 from the TSX) fit in the EP chassis without a mount kit? Has anyone done this before? Im sure im not coming up with original ideas or anything.
Im pretty big on sleeper cars, so i was wondering. With the formentioned modifications (a2 motor with the engine kit) and a small shot of nitrous (~50) would the stock intake assembly be a major restriction? I will also be keeping the stock muffler.
I am not new to cars, i know how to work on them, and i know a fair bit about b/d motors, but am extremely new to the K family. Any work done to the car will be done by me.
Thanks for any help you'd feel so inclined providing.
