    Don't quote me, accuracy will not matter in proving my point
    F20 2.0 110hp per liter
    K20 RSX type S 2.0 105hp liter
    B18c5 109 give or take hp per liter

    Honda Accord V6 Coupe 3.0 ... 67 hp/liter
    Acura 3.2 TL Type S ..... 81.25 hp/liter

    Get what i'm saying? Obviously the bigger engines have long strokes, making them not as rev happy but that wasn't the goal. These torquey motors were designed to pull weight on American roads (stop and go traffic that's a different driving style from our over the seas friends). Be prepared to spend money if you want these to sing like the smaller motors, as Honda obviously didn't want to invest the $ to make these motors something they didn't need to be.
    On the other side, I wouldn't mind an 09 Accord 6 speed with a comptech supercharged and LSD....If I was in the market for something like that. Would be a super sleeper
    Hell yeah it would. It is in an '02 Accord four door.

    Moseley on here an an 03 IIRC Accord Coupe 6 speed intake/header/exhaust. I think it made around 230whp and had no trouble pulling G35's, S2000's, 350z's etc.

    Oh wow. Surprising actually. I wouldn't think it would be like that. What about that motor against the 2.5 KLDE? Both stock.
