To make 200whp+.... what's required?

[112480]

k20s are a waste of money for 200whp. Even if you do budget shop it's still $2000-3000 over a b series swap and a ton more fabrication and work. The only reason to go k series is if you want to make over 230whp on a relatively stock motor. But even then it's more expensive than anything else you could do.

To be honest the BEST combo is h2b. It's substancially cheaper than a k series, can make the same power if not more, it's much easier to swap than a k series, it's just all around better.

There's guys on here with bolt ons and cams in a h23vtec oem Honda motor making 225-245 whp. Show me a k20 or k24 making that kind of power LOCALLY not on the Internet

This is true.
