K24A2 Swap Comments

Should I add the tsx 6th gear? Its a daily driver.

[RHCP0801]

so is mine, i dont have a 6th gear

Alright cool. Just asking. Why shouldn't I use the type s tranny?

PRB mani and EP3 TB on a K24A2 head will not work with AN fittings, the throttle body is too close to the head.

all that hard work for nothing.

also, theres a sensor in the front by the starter, im guessing is ECT or something, its plug is different than an RBB-2's similar sensor. the connections aren't even close.pics later.

i have the type s tranny on my a3 and obviously keeping it when i put the k24a2 in. But its a huge difference in the gearing from the 5 speed. if u have the extra i'd spring and get the 6 speed if ur staying all motor

cause you can add a tsx 6th to the 5 spd. i like the gearing

[RHCP0801]

if you have the tranny open, mine as well slip in an lsd

do i need karcepts bracket if i want to go with skunk2 70mm throttle body? k24a2/rbb intake manifold

and the shop thats doing my swap didnt mention anything about injectors....so i guess they are swapping the a3's on it....pro/con ?

[RHCP0801]

not sure about the skunk2 tb but are you getting the intake mani port matched to 70mm also? if you arent than the skunk2 tb is a waste of money and wont do anything powerwise. Use the stock tsx injectors

Yes you will need the karcepts adapter to put the skunk2 or ep3 throttle body on. The Ep injectors are way to small for the k24a2, they are only 270cc and the k24a2 stock are 310cc. Let me know if you need some I have tsx injectors for sale.
