          Lots of money, contact HAsport and see if they make any mount kit swaps or whatnot.

              I never hear of NSX swaps, cuz of the cost from RWD to FWD and other associated costs of converting a mid engine whatnot.

                    if you wanted the nsx engine just get an acura TL typeS(basically same motor) and i believe its setup for fwd correct?

                    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                            so you're telling him to sell his k20 motor to run an ls/vtec? that's one of the more retarded things I've ever heard. look into the power potential of your k20 motor, you have a good platform to build off of.

                                Engine. Considerably more expensive then LS motor. I think some sponsor car (some rsx) just went 9's with it all motor.

                                  buy a honda civic and put the k20 motor in it....have you ever seen a civic with a 6 speed?? that would be awesome.

                                    I almost did a k20 swap into my 7th gen civic , lots of money but I was going to go through with it, but it was a LOT cheaper just to get the wrx and run better times with that.

                                        Bryce, that kind of compression would require low boost (which is the likely route) or a ridiculously high octane fuel. Although you'd probably see a rod punch a hole through the block before you'd experience detonation. The K24 would be better for a turbo, although I'm fairly certain that AFR is around the 10.0:1 mark as well.

                                          boost magazine (from car & driver i think...) put a supercharger on the k20 and ran like 4.7 psi. actually, there have a been some arguments on honda-tech about which is better for a turbo: high or low compression. low compression means more boost for xxxhp with significant lag, whereas higher compression means less boost for xxxhp with a little less lag. i think the #'s were 9:1 vs 10:1
                                          granted, many other factors come into play (fuel mainly), but that was the basis for the argument
