MAN I JUST GOT KPRO. runs alot smoother even though im completely on the stock a3...thanks to manmanning helped me out a bit on installation. not that it was a big deal...
but now im contemplating on the a1 or a2?(k24)
boost on a1 or sc on a2???
help on passed experiences.. i know this is all based on opinion and what one prefers. but experiences from veteran ephatchers would help. thanks

depends on your power goal and what you want to do. track i suggest k24a2 SC...for high i suggest turbo. more potential but also more risk.

K24a2 turbo but I may be a little biased on that. Just get the k24a2 to start and when you get bored of the extra power you can always turbo it for plenty of power. There are plenty of threads here on all k24a1-k24a2 setups

There is simply no choice there, K24A2 with a Rotrex SC

For the lower cost option the K24A4 is a great candidate for a small amount of boost, plenty of decent deals around for smaller used turbo setups.

Found a 04 motor with 104 k with no timing chain cover for 1000 also found a 05 for 1400 with 84 k..... (Both tsxs) ....
Should I do it? I have the money I just might not wanna spend as much so I can add an exhaust and maybe a r b c.. just wanna know if the 04 is worth it..
Opinions?

That's a lot of miles. I've seen 40-60k for around that price

thats the truth. a buddy of mine bought a b18c5 for his integra. didnt know the mileage bc the vin was scratched off. 2 weeks later he threw a rod bearing :(
