cuz i am planning to do a k20a swap into a civic eg

Japan...nothing like spoon engines...

Well while you are planning, you had better plan for about $6,000-$10,000 in parts and labor too. This swap while given is the new "fad" is definatly not the most economical or effecient of what you could do. You can swap in a B18C from a GSR, put a good turbo kit from either Greddy or Turbonetics an still be under what you would pay for the K20 swap.

HondaB16 and I should be answer friends. What he said is right the swap at the current moment is price out of control. Hmotorsonline.com(best place to buy a swap online) offers the swap for $4000. Even if you do your own labor its going cost you $2000. But this swap isnt for the first timers. Your better off buying a EG with a swap in it. You can buy a K20A3 USDM Civic SI motor swap for about $3000 but its under powered. A Integra Type R swap at a local shop runs for $4,000 and should run with a stock K20's. ITR with cams, cam gears, headers, exhaust, lighter flywheel, intake and hondata ecu and tune you should see 210whp+ and cost you and extra $1500 $5500 for a might type RVS$6000 stock at cheapest K20$8000 avg$10,000 maxall stockdont get me wrong the K20s are a monster of a motor I should know I had one before but price wise B18 way to go
