thats great for boosted cars or k24's that have trouble keeping the wheels on the ground
how much would it cost to swap a k24a2 about?
If you are wanting to boost it then its a totally different story. It is more so the pistons that you want to change(get forged ones) and then you can do some forged rods as well. The block can take upwards of 400whp stock but I still reccommend forged rods/pistons if you really want it to last and dont' rev it over 7500.
A 02-04 type s 6spd is the easiest choice but optimal is gonna be the 05-06 type s tranny.(alot more work though)
Nearly 6k if you want bolt ons and good start.
Read this thread. Gooood info. I have a couple reassurances.
1. K24a2 swap, for the rbb if i have the karcepts adapter. Can I run my injen sp1576 CAI?
2. I only want to swap over the k24a2 longblock, will I need to use different coolant lines?
3. And coolant port on the head, since I would be using the the stock rbb I wouldn't need to worry about it.
4. I have a Mugen ep3 spec header that I do not want to get rid of, can I use the em2 sway and be ok? Or will I have to use no sway, if that's the case, what the advantages and disadvantages? My goal for the k24a2 is to have a kick ass daily motor and that's it. no racing or anything.
5. 440 cc injectors ok?
Man you are starting to ask about a lot of VERY specific combonations of parts, and I just don't know if it will all fit. Most of it should but I don't know for sure.
Two things I can feel pretty comfortable about saying for sure about.
- If you are using the stock intake manifold the you are correct that you don't have to worry about the water port on the head.
- 440 cc injectors are larger than is needed but should work just fine as long as you are getting some way to tune, preferably K-pro
You can use the stock coolent lines, main difference really is the extra one running to the head.
You will not be able to use your cai. The RBB manifold inlet sits at an angle, making the tb sit at the same angle, not allowing it to fit.
when you remove and engine from the botom or from the top
do we need to take the wheels off?
It doesnt seem like we need to, is this correct?
how long can i put off a dyno tune
after getting the k24a2 swap
or does it have to be done right away
I already have kpro
Is there a reason you need to leave the wheels on? When I swapped I removed as much crap as I possibly could so that I had easy access to whatever area of the car I needed to get to.
As long as needed really. Just enable a healthy lean cut when you first get out and drive it to be safe. Hell, I know a guy who had used a basemap on his K20A for almost 4 years before getting tuned.
ok got it
thanks

Sure thing man. Didn't try to come across like a dick, I was genuinely curious as to if you had a reason the wheels had to stay on. Either way, you'll be good to go.
no worries bro
I was actually a bit worried about the shop somehow fucking up my wheels
I dont like them using their dam power tools to take off the lugs, cuz they tend to scratch it up sometimes but I will be there anyways to make sure its taken cared of
Random bump
Do you know where is the fuel filter? cuz I can't find one on the k24a2 and I dont find the oem one on the A3.
It's in the tank.
