    k24a4 is more like 130 whp / 130 wtrq. with JRSC-R you'll be making 170 whp+ depending on supporting mods and tune. have you considered the k20a2?

    i was told k24 from accord swap into EP3 will get 160/160 whp/tq... that was from JEI (blacktrax) who did it to his own car few year back....

    k20a2 is little out of my price range....$3000 is about max....and i want to use the k20a3's tranny.....cuz im about to install a LSD and fix the 2nd-3rd gear grind....

    The k24a2 is the best motor you can swap. I have had both a jrsc k20a3, and an n/a k24a2 with good bolt ons. The tsx motor was substantially more powerful than the k20a3 with jrsc.
