all about the EP3

[mike buu]

OK i have a couple of questions/myths i want to get solved about the EP3.

1. Is the Ep3 a chain or timing belt?
2. If the EP3 is a chain why is the k20a3 in the RSX base not a chain?
3. Is their two VTEC kick in spots, like 3200 and 5500?
4. Who would win, a stock rsx base manual vs EP3 stock? Or possibly a tie?
5. Is their a magical website that is credible that can answer all these questions and more?!

Thanks guys/girls

omg these have been already answered alot of times. Simple search on various subforum here would have leaded to a tons of infos on your EP3. anyway since you're new :

1. Is the Ep3 a chain or timing belt? Timing Chain
2. If the EP3 is a chain why is the k20a3 in the RSX base not a chain? It's a Chain... it's the same engine!
3. Is their two VTEC kick in spots, like 3200 and 5500? Only 1 "economic" VTEC kicks at 2200-2500 rpm, no VTEC lobe on exhaust cam
4. Who would win, a stock rsx base manual vs EP3 stock? Or possibly a tie? Stock EP3 since it got a better Intake Manifold and Less Weight
5. Is their a magical website that is credible that can answer all these questions and more?! I hope you're not serious on this one.... you are actually on THE BEST EP3 website evermade...

HAve a good stay here! But please search other forum like the "Engine" forum to find your answer and even more!
