I am in the move for another import and was thinking of getting a s2k but till i found out they want 275 a month for insurance dont no if i will go that way yet.


Now the other cars that are a little cheaper on insurance are the 2002 civic si hatch that i like and the 350z was actually cheaper than the s2k on insurance :thinking: dont ask me but how hard is it to boost the hatch on that k series motor and how much money,and far as building the engine to hold boost are will it perform great on stock eternals.

hmmmm...... The best place to search would be ephatch.com.

From what I've read, the k20a3 in the EP3 doesen't liked to be pushed over 300whp or the crank walks. A used RSX type S would be a MUCH better starting point, they have a better head, and can take more abuse than the k20a3. But if you are just looking for low to mid 200's whp. then an ep would be fine.
