I tryed to pull the pugs and crank it again but no luck. There is like a small pond on the bottom of my intake. I already have another engine to drop in to it but I'm waiting on a friend to come help me. I'm going to tear apart the messed up engine when its out to check out whats screwed up, rebuild it and hopefuly turbo. But who knows I'll probably never get around to it. < Message edited by DarkMx6 -- 2/27/2007 6:52:46 PM > (in reply to Belmont) Post #: 12

What is the k20a3 out of? Is that the 7th gen si? I didnt know they were that cheap... any big difference between the a3 and the a1 and a2 from the rsx? _____________________________ 精神分裂病。。。もし分かればあなた天才だよ！! (in reply to Belmont) Post #: 16

The a3 comes out of the si and base model rsx, it has 160 hp. The a2 is out of the rsx type s and has about 200 hp. Finally the a1 comes out of the integra type r, and I believe it sports 220 hp. < Message edited by Belmont -- 3/5/2007 1:49:39 AM > _____________________________ (in reply to TheMoogly) Post #: 17
