i remember seeing a dyno on HT that was very dissapointing. dont know if its true or not, could of been the tuning...

 

For some weird reason, i am thinking that the s2k redlines at an abnormally high rpm. Sorry if thats a little off the subject, but i would still like to know. What series of engines are in the s2k's?

 

f20c which is a very well made motor.

 

it's a modified f-series, alot like that of the f20b, basically it's an f series with a head that is similar to that of a h22

on a side note: it's rwd, and without alot of work it's not fitting in a civic.

 

thats a bit misleading.... it has spoon parts... now is it a spoon engine? spoon engines are balanced, blue printed, blah blah blah....

just curious thats allh:

 

all the shit and only 176 hp? wtf!

 

defently not worth it to buy that motor for 5k would defently be alot cheaper to build your own and you will def get more power than 176

 

spoon engines arent anything special when it comes to making power, they use all OE parts. the idea behind them is that they are almost perfectly balanced (to within 1/100th of a gram) meaning the engine is smooth.

the idea is basically that the engines are so well balanced they can see majorly high revs for the majority of their lifetime

 

is that dyno page jacked? i mean doesnt a stock R have like 192hp, how would it drop to 176 with all of those goods attatched???

 

192 crank

EDIT: i thought it was 195. so if you figure a 15% loss to the wheels youd be at ~165whp. considering spoon uses OE internals and the motor has an aftermarket header and tb, it would be a gain of 9whp from the 2 bolts ons. makes sense to me..

EDIT2: so pretty much this is an extremely well balanced b18c5 that will be able to take a beating a stock one couldnt + bolt-ons. correct me if im wrong.
