Most non honda owners were once type r owners who have moved on to something else for various reasons.

fair enough

Off topic much?

So then, what's the mpg like?

Have you had to put a beefier clutch in to handle the extra torque?

 

[Stoo.]

I do like the sound of these.

Tl:dr, did it start as an R?

mpg is bang on 20 atm but that's all town driving and it's overfuelling a bit. it's not great but it's not TOOOOO bad considering lol.
i've got a shell helix clutch which is fine for the torque i've got and it feels exactly like a stock clutch (it's organic and not a paddle jobby)

i do like hondas i just prefer displacement

 

[jordbalboa]

Bigger isn't better

 

[jordbalboa]

My arms though. That's another mater lmao

honda vtec is great but i prefer displacement

 

[jordbalboa]

I'm a fan of muscle cars. Never driven one though. I admire the underdog, prob why i like the smaller engined hondas.

i found my midlife crisis car recently
and s2k with an ls1 up front!!

 

[D4N H]

No replacement for displacement

 

[eatthis]

question boost or displacement?
answer BOTH

 

[jordbalboa]

boost a f20c and we will see

More power from a 2 ltr than that golf.....seeeeeeeyaaaaaaaa

is the f20 the s2k motor? 240-250 hp stock? that makes it the same hp as mine so the same boost would = roughly the same hp anyway then yuore into the big gray area of torque curves and gear ratios.

i was more talking about a big fck off v8 with a blower than my moderate sized motor
