Can we separate the k24 swap and k20a swap parts list?
Its just my suggestion.I'm getting a little confused on the parts I need.

Thanks.

There's so little difference between the two swaps it's not much use to do so.

This would be of great help to myself. Just picked up a K20A Type R and dropping it into a DC2.... Thank you. I am new to this, as of today so I am sure I will be up in here asking ?'s if i get stuck somewhere....:driving:

anybody know how much hp can a stock k24a2 rod handle? im putting in pistons on my 2.4 next week. should i get the rods? im going 11.5 compression pistons. looking for at least 250 hp. can a stock tsx rod handle that?

As everyone else, im piecing together and got a complete k24a1 and complete k20a2 (hydrolocked) Doing k20/k24. Your list looks great as im doing it into an eg also.

With all the bonus parts i got in the motors, will the rsx s idler pulley work in place of the ep3 idler pulley? Sorry but i can't find the specs on both.

idler pulley for the rsx? the rsx uses a power steering pump (hydralic) and the ep3 uses a idler pulley since it has eps.

People run the EP3 idler pulley to remove the a/c and p/s. The pulley is really there just so that the belt can route correctly over everything i'mm sure.

You can use that or get one of the karcepts / k-tuned kits. Both do the same. The karcepts/k-tuned relocate the alternator and it cleans the bay up nicely.

Next swap i'll be using on of those rather than the EP3 pulley.

I'm more a fan of OEM parts than anything aftermarket, OEM is reliability second to none. I'm not knocking anything you mentioned but between the two I'd go with the OEM setup every time.

It's good to be able to have a choice :up:

For the older chassis', the aftermarket kits allow re-location of the alt for hood clearance so thats a benefit of those ones.
