It's 138whp and 135tq..

 

[DanW]

Hotwheelz's K24A2 with I/H/E/Kpro

edit: For some reason the tq and hp lines don't cross at 5252

 

[LSVtec92Hatch]

Its impossible for them not to. The only reason is if the right side of the graph, which is cut off, has the tq figure on a different scale.

 

[HotWheelz]

yes different scales

hotwheelz's dyno is the shit...lol..my k24a2 is going in this summer

i cant wait to get to work on it.


BTW..i have some k24a2s avail, check out the siggie :up:

Will just a Hondata reflash get those hp/tq numbers? I can't afford the K-Pro yet

 

[civictype-s]

save your money, k-pro is unbelievable. i bought one of papi"s motors, good guy. i plan on putting it in sometime in the next 2 weeks or so, and ill definately get a dyno posted up here.

K24a2- The Acura TSX comes in with 10.5:1 compression and 2.4 liters of displacement. The motor is rated at 200hp at 6800rpm and 166lbs-ft at 4500rpm. This motor uses the conventional VTEC mechanism as the older B series motors but with the addition of VTC. This motor uses a drive by wire throttle and has EGR castings on the manifold. This motor comes with a 6 speed transmission and no LSD.



can't wait to get mine in...

I had to bring this back to life because of this months sport compact article. They are doing a TSX buildup with some bolt ons to compete with an M3. I saw they have Skunk2 working on the car. Well, the thing that got me, was they put on their header, prototype intake, and ran the car on Kpro and are only seeing 186whp and about 155wtq...and these dudes are ecstatic!! Skunk2 no doubt has the know how, so what the hell is the deal here? I immediately reflected back to seeing the dyno above and seeing a whole different party...still claiming being equipped with I/H/E and Kpro. That's a pretty phenominal difference, so my question is, what is the real story on the TSX motor used in the dyno above? Was that thing equipped with an open equal length race style header, or was is a streetable combination?

GOOD QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PapiTuyo326]

GOOD QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Didnt that issue talk about a CRV Bottom end and k20a2 head. This is VERY different from a TSX motorl The TSX motor has the following advantages

- balanced crank
- better oil system
- higher compression pistons

The difference in compression helps account for the difference in power. Also since the TSX has a balanced crank, it can rev significantly higher than the CRV bottom end, thus allowing for more power to be made.

IMO ...TSX motor > ALL

Yeah I was also wondering wtf when I saw the SCC article and why they got such low #s compared to the high #s we see people make on this forum.

 

[RC000E]

Papi, what we are referring to was this months sport compact which is modifying an actual TSX, not a K24 bottom with a head, this is an actual Acura TSX. The dyno on the first page shows a TSX engine with basic bolt ons and Kpro pushing WAY bigger numbers than the TSX in the mag. I would chalk it up to inadequate tuning, but damn it was Skunk2 who tuned it....

what is better about the oil system?

 

[PapiTuyo326]

what is better about the oil system?

from what i remember when it was opened up, better channels and whatnot

Hmm, they always seem to dyno somewhat low. I wonder what dyno machine they use.

 

[RC000E]

I wish Hotwheelz would chime in here sometime.

Are there oil squirters in the k24a2 block.

 

[RC000E]

I sure wish I could get someone to respond to this post so this becomes and understandable situation. I was really after the K24A2, but if this is the most stock potential that the K24 has (Sport Compact Article), then I am certainly going K20.
