K20's are good motors, but like with any N/a motor to get say a quick 30-50hp outta it you have to spend more than like 300 bux for a simple tune!!
I dont kno many rsx's running 10's and 11's without decent size turbos so whats your point?
Base balt to base rsx is my mistake, but the ratio from 2.4 to type S is similar enough.
really wish these were both manuals itd be fun race!

that's the only downside to the honder motors. the power. so they make up for it by having a lighter chassis. which sometimes doesn't help much lol

the only fast one i've read was skunk2's all motor rsx that ran 9's with around 315whp. that's pretty impressive considering you don't read/hear about it often lol.

U take a car and drop 2 -2.5 secs off 1/4 times for less than a grand and I would call that a good tuner, reglardes of 15 to 13's or 20's to 18's.
By your logic, if you cant get a car into the 10's or 11's dont get it?
Bah anyway i dont want to thread hijack and to be honest i dont care haha, let us know how the outcome goes.

why are you so hung up on 10's and 11's, there ALOT of cars that cant do that, doesnt mean they arent good tuners.

A SC would be a closer race for you than a TC. I don't know how much your car puts down but I know the K20 SI's pull ~180whp. Though the SC's are rated 205bhp there under rated and put down ~215 whp on average. It would be best to find a stock one because a SC with even the crappy GM stg 2 is as fast as a stock TC.

Well we didnt get to do a dig and the header is off my car. So on stock exhaust with just the jet module and the injen short ram we raced.
40-95mph He got me by 2 cars. Not too bad. Will have to get the header back on and see if I can do better from a dig.
