I've come back, for the time being, and found a number of posts from users thinking this is an easy swap. It isn't, in fact it's a particularly annoying swap. Not because it's necessarily difficult, but of the vast assortment of parts that you will need to make the swap work. This has been compiled from various sources as well as my own personal experience. Hopefully, it helps. Parts needed- Complete K20 motor changeover. Intermediate shaft. K20 O2 sensors. RSX or 02+ Si subframe. Hasport mount kit. Hasport wiring kit (if you have balls of steel, you can wire it yourself). Parts needed from an RSX- Shifter cables. Header and D/P. Clutch lines. Power steering hose. Power steering return line. Parts needed from an 02+ Si- A/C line from compressor to condensor. Axles. Radiator and fans. Upper and lower radiator hoses. Other- 92-95 Civic power steering reservior. 92-95 Civic throttle cable.

You know, I've discussed my car in detail with a select few. It exists and I really couldn't care less, at this point, who believes it or not. My arrogance was one reason that **** got started, I'm sure. I figured I'd try to shed some light on the 7th gen community, seeing as there's alot more now than there was when I joined (1 or 2). Seeing as I'm probably one, if not the, most knowledgeable person as far as K-series swaps and EM2s, ES1s, EP3s and DC5s, I figured I'd try to help...again. Basically, love me or hate me, I don't really care. Life is about more than cars or bickering on internet forums.

Cool. I want a turbo K20. Any idea what kind of #'s they lay down and 1/4 times they run? There are some fast hatches here with DOHCS running low 14s, fast. I cant imagine a turbo k20.
