You guys will think I'm crazy lol, I spent yesterday at NVA-AV6's garage from V6P and since I won't go much further with the H22 after all I'm going with K series .
He will end up doing the swap and I'll be learning in the process on how to build a motor it's going to be a winter project. My friend has a K20Z1 Head from his 06 RSX-S with 22k on it for sale local and I'm going to be using this along with either a K24A4, K24A8 or K24A1 bottom end depends which one I can get for a better deal when I get to the junk yard in PA in the next few weeks but the head is such a good deal that's my first purchase they are not cheap as we know and not easy to find. The motor will be rebuilt from the ground up also. My team member works for Acura and has a 400whp RSX he has spare parts left and right and if he only would sell me his spare TSX bottom end that would be sweet but he does have a few things that can help my swap go smoother and a bit cheaper and with what ever else I need to buy from the dealer will be with his good old employee discount from the dealer.
I'm not tired of the H22 I love it but the K series might of never been done but I'm confident it will get done with the help I'll be getting and the parts I'll be sourcing for a good price. I want to try to be the first and hopefully not last of the 6th gen owners to try this so soon after my H22 setup which is a full drop out will be on the market for a fair price. I'll explain what internals and other mods I'll be using shortly but this will end up being a Forced induction setup with low boost down the road after I can get the car running perfect and recovering from the costs lol. It's not going to happen over night and it's not going to be easy but it will be done.
