The K20s in the newer Si hatches aren't very good. The good K20 is the one found in the RSX Type-S and in the new Si.

The 03/04 Si hatch comes with the the K20A3 engine with a 5 speed manual. The K20A3 is also found in the base model RSX. The K20A2 is found in the RSX Type-S and uses a 6 speed manual. This website tells the difference between the A2 and A3. Basically, the A2 is better than the A3. A2 has 40 more HP and 20 more ft/lbs of torque.
