Valve springs + K20 intake manifold

[EG5]

From the TSX forums:
since the RRB and the RBC are newer, they require the use of a Drive-By-Wire throttle body. Since the K20A and other models are not Drive-By-Wire, the throttle bodies do not bolt up. You will need an adapter plate used in conjunction with a K20A throttle body and cable

the adaptor plate is only for non drive-by-wire TBs... so i wont need it for the k24a

thats what i just said up there.
but anyway this mods should be good for you

lol cheers buddy

ill keep everyone updated!

thanks for that ALN... so i only need valvesprings and retianers if increasing my rev limit over 8000rpm...

You also need pistons, rods, pins and other goodies in the block. Otherwise the engine won't last spinning to over 8000rpm.

thats exactly what im wondering!

im pretty sure id need alot of tuning for stage 3... but would i get away with the jtune mild flash for stage 2 cams?

Yes, you should get proper tuning if you are replacing the cams.

is there anyone that does custom tuning for the euro? do i have to get piggy back ecu (apexi AFC/NEO or similar) or can you just tune stock?

VAFCii and the Neo are insufficient as they cannot control VTC and ignition timing. You will either have to get a custom reflash or go k-pro using a harness and a k20a ecu. There should be other brands of ECUs available for the Euro and those will work as well. Before choosing an ECU, I'd choose a tuner first.

Hmm.I hope you've got deep pockets EUROO3act.

id prefer custom reflash... as i dont want to loose cruise control/VSA/air con and all that other stuff you loose when changing to k20 ecu...

my pockets arent deep, but a fool and his money are easily parted lol

Use the Hytech k24a/k20a ecu harness. You run 2 ECUs. The k20a with k-pro runs the engine and the k24a runs your A/C, cruise control and it might even keep VSA working (just guessing though). Downside is that the harness costs a few hundred USD, and a k-pro'd k20a ECU isn't exactly cheap.

is that just the US hondata k-pro ecu? thanks aaronng

On their website, it works with the PRB (USDM Type S) and the PRC (JDM DC5R) ECUs.
