is everyone that has done the swap really please with it ??


see i was gonna buy the k20a type r but i figured i get a cut harness an no shifter cables or shifter box or shit like that so i got a type s i traded in the old b18c5 for it ill be runin stock tsx header due to $$$ and ill have the hasport mounts hasports 250hp axles, c&r radiator 255lph walbaro fuel pump aem ep3 pulley custom intake and last but not least hondata k pro.

just wondering if anyone has similar and if i will be really happy what hp you think ill have. i know im already excited i mean come on 200hp motor out of a 03 type s with less than 10k and a 6spd come on. like i said i had a c5 and i wanted another R but for the money i dont think its worth it like with the cut harness and the shifter cables and shit you gotta get.

do you think im wrong? let me know what you guys really think of your k swaps!!

thanks alot ill be sure to post pics when mines done

For the K swap go for it…

On thing that I’m going to tell you is YEEEHAAA…That is a happy owner of a K swap…

The HP?

You will be around 202whp+ with ease.


If you can try to get the Type r K motor but even with the type S you are going to be a happy camper.

This is with out K-pro..


Good luck :mrgreen:

my b18c5 didnt have perfect compression and it burned oil and smoked and the last time i dynoed a long time ago it made 175hp im sure it was less close to now but i race a fox body with 373 gears and intake and he would get me pretty good which im not suprised since after the race i pulled number 4 plug and it was gone hahahha i tryed to explain but you know domestic boys he just kept talking shit , hes all like yeah hondas burn all that oil and my mustang will never break im like ok keep thinking that, i just cant wait i wanna light his ass up not even from the beginning i wanna reel him in like hes standing still you know hahha thats the way i like to race.

Well my K20A-R made 170wkw at a show on saturday... I'm still runniong a cheap nasty RSX-S header which has been cut up to fit...

haha..I feel for you man.

You know when I finally decided to do my first swap (I realize this isnt your first swap...) I was first going to just drop in a d16 vtec engine. After struggling with trying to find a cheapo one I started thinking about a b16.

After looking around for a good deal I started looking at the b18 then the b18cr engine and h22.

Well I decided to go with the b18c-r and was super happy with it! Then after a year I started looking into the new k swaps and decided thats what I wanted.

Is it the right thing to do? YES. Will you be disappointed? That all depends on what you think the k is going to do for you. If your realilistic youll be very happy.

Good Luck
