    installing the k20a

    well i bought a k20 for my 02 si and i'm excited. the only thing is
    i'm looking on the web how to install it. i search k-series and ep hatch but nothing. i know i have to modify the shifter to use the 6 gear and reverse. but what else how about the electric power steering i thought it was only in the civic. also i read about the k20a is it only in the itr or also in the ctr. if it in both what is the differnce and does the ctr has eps. please help i want it in by next week i can't wait.

    the installation should be pretty straight forward everything plug and play i would imagine. only the civics have electric power steering. the integras k20a have hydraulic power steering. our motor has an engine idler in the place of the hydraulic power steering. just swap the idler over to the k20a

    doing it yourself will only make you more acknowledgable about the swap

    I would do it myself if i had a chance...

    I think I have read it is all plug and play except in the TB. I think the wiring is a little diffrent for the A TB so the SI plug will not work.

    Please. Honda swaps are a walk in the park (as long as you aren't doing something like an NSX engine in a CRX).

    I would do it myself. Should only take 1-2 days as long as you don't break anything.
