K20, K24 or k24/k20

**jayeg** · 03-11-2008 01:18 PM

I'm thinking of purchasing one of these in the near future, i was wondering what would be best for a daily driver and a bit of track work/drag racing, I know that there is good and bad points about all of these, i know that k20 is higher reving and k24 have more torque and for the k20/k24 im not too sure on this.
I know whatever set up i choose i will be looking at around $15G, Just wanted to hear the opinions of people that have owned these set ups. It will be going into an EG hatch, i know they all have pretty similar quarter mile times, im looking for a high 13 or low 12 sec pass, so yeah just wanted to know how you found having a daily driver and as a drag car.
I have also looked into turbo b series but i just wanted it to be reliable and it will cost around the same to get a 12 or 13 sec pass.

Primarily circuit = K20
Primarily drag = K24

They are just as reliable as each other it all depends on what you want out of it. If you are serious about track and you are going to do this on a regular basis then K20.

Either K20a2, K20z1 or K24 will be a reliable option for your needs.

Ill prefer to get one without it being reopen or rebuilt. OEM from factory seems like the way to go.

for the eg any of those engine would do...and i don't think there's any need to do any aftermarket cams.. just the I/H/E and just that will make that eg a animail to drive. and ofcourse....clutch and f/w
