One of my dream car builds is a Lotus Exige with this type of super-hot K20/K24 hybrid engine swapped in. Straight K20 swaps have been done in the Exige chassis before, and anywhere a K20 will fit a beastly hybrid K will fit as well.

I’m sure, but people fit the K24 in CRX chassis, so it’s gotta be do-able in the later civic. The best things in life are hard to achieve :D
Awww, makes sense.
It could still work in totally built, full-banana form though. 400 horsepower should be enough to mix it up in the 2000-3000cc class. Granted, that’s probably a $20,000 engine build.
A guy can dream!
Great drivetrain, but I would love to see this thing run with a K20/K24 hybrid. You get a punchy 2.4 liters of displacement with a screaming type-S VTECH cylinder head. The little beasts will get over 300 horsepower naturally aspirated without trouble and upwards of 400 in fully-built form:
RHD-only badge, RHD-only car if you ask me. If available as both, ehh, go on then.
+1 for the fantastic intake honkus noises. If you can’t justify the purchase with better engine sound alone, you’ve made a mistake.
We didn’t give a damn about power gains when we threw a CAI on Project Hoondy. It was that sonorous V6 growl we were after:
+1 for “hot air intake”
Only if your infinity is Right Hand Drive :P
It’s not having a CAI, that’s fine, it’s bragging about having a CAI. CAI is the cheapest, easiest, most idiot-proof “power mod.” Bragging about having one is like bragging about getting to first base. Yea, good job there skippy; nice “gains”.
I love your assumption that rich people are inherently smart. There is a positive correlation between wealth and education level, but there is zero real-world correlation between wealth and intelligence.
“I have no idea what happened, but it was cool as hell.”
I love laughing at the advertisements for “ultra lite” beers such as Bud 55 or Miller 64. They are always showing really fit, athletic people drinking their beer.
Ok, I thought so, but damn, you gotta use an /s for sarcasm tag next time. That comment bruised my soul a little.
I say this as a former enthusiastic owner of an elderly Chrysler Corp product. Fun to drive it was, pretty to look at it was not.
Plus ONE MILLION to this. As a comedian’s subject material becomes more controversial, the risk/reward ratio increases dramatically. No subject is off limits, but if you’re gonna joke about racism, genocide, rape, pedophilia, or some other extremely disagreeable subject then your delivery had better be solid fucking…
Th... This is where you choose to stand and fight the “Chrysler Corp products look like butt” argument? Not the Viper SRT-10, no no, a Dodge Neon.
*inalienable
Don’t forget about all the deaths from drug abuse. The opiate epidemic, which shows no signs of slowing, will surely contribute to emerging generations in the USA having shorter life-expectancy than those that came before them.
Funny, but untrue. Americans’ higher death rate is more expensive than if our citizens lived longer lives. Dying is expensive, especially in the USA. A huge amount of our medical costs go into the last 6 months of our citizens’ lives. Medical treatment for heart disease, cancer, and the other maladies that Americans…
It’s pretty obvious that she means it is ridiculous for ownership of deadly firearms to be an ineligible right while access to healthcare is not.
Where do you live? Is E85 fuel readily available to you? If so E85/flex-fuel tunes do a ridiculously good job of waking up the FA20 engine. That crazy-high 12.5:1 compression ratio can be put to work. With the 100+ octane rating of E85 you can get extremely aggressive ignition timing that results in major mid-range…
