The K24 Engine gives the K20 a very good run for its money

[BLKCRX]

Whilst the k20 engine has more Peak power, look at the torque difference the k24 engine makes !! And look how much sooner the k24 engine makes power compared to the highly modified k20 engine.

Both run’s cars were dyno'ed in 4th gear

K20 setup

The future is the K engine from Honda !

wow. looking at the torque. the k24 looks like its got double the area under the curve compared to the k20.

[BLKCRX]

Yeah the K24 is a very toquey monster… like I said within my article, slap on a k20 head and add boost… and watch out !!
Its even more interesting when you compare the K24 with a b18/b16h22 etc

Which K20 was it?Standard or Type R/S

[BLKCRX]

The k20 was a DC5r Type R k20A3 engine fairly heavily modified also...

wow, i always thought the k24 was a bit of a slug.... the dyno has proven that wrong

good info james

[stephen8512]

which K24 engine were u using just outta curiosity?
K24A3 (honda euro, 140kw @ fly) or K24A4 (crv, accord vti, 118kw@ fly)

[Shraka]

That dyno sheet doesn't really prove... anything... :S
Once you factor in gearing, the K24 isn't gonna do much better down low than the K20... and once it gets it's power on, the K20 is just gonna be gone.

K24 would make a better runabout engine though. But if you really want torque, get a turbo engine.

I've seen a DC5R slapped with a CRV bottom end which I believe is a K24....

how did it go anyway?

old thread i know but was that a k20a3 block with a k20a2 or k20a head and internals? i thought the aus DC5 type r's came with only k20a2 engines? is yours stamped A3?
