honda's k20?

Question

i am not thinking of doiny any swaps, i think that is a waste of money, but i like when people do it, but my question is what is the quartermile time when you have put the k20a ( acuras rsx type s) into the 92 - 95 civic hatchbacks, all stock, i never really know how fast those things are, but i am guessing 200 horses in 1300 pounds car is probably monstrous. Who knows

Answer 1

stock K20A (integra DC5) claims to produce 220hp at the wheel.. that what the japs brochure sezs..
in civic sr/eg chasis probaly clocked at 14's or so..(stock vtecs alway screams at 5k rev)

Answer 2

regardless of the power output the K20 is a very efficient motor. If you are looking at numbers directly in relation to a drop in stock K20 into a civic, you can expect an easy high 13s (depending on the 60 foot) all the way up to mid 14s.

In a straight line drag rage, your 60 ft normally determines how fast you get to the finish line.
