It's an lx motor lol. You think they built it to handle a turbo kit.
I don't "think" anything about it, because I don't know. Hence my question.

Well DRob and a lot of others say RIP
Do they? That's why I asked. Do you have any information they've posted in regards to the K20C2 vs. the K20C1 as far as internals or structural integrity?

@D-RobIMW I'm genuinely curious how you think the K20C2 will hold up to a turbo. I always prefer hearing from the source over hearsay. I've seen very little, if anything, on the subject

Here's his LX connecting rod 13210-5BA-A00 13210-6B2-A00 and piston is 13010-RPY-G01

The Type R is connecting rod is 13210-6B2-A00 and piston is 13010-5BA-A00
So they are different

No lol and don't ask me. I am just relaying messages from others and from Ktuner as well who has dyno tested the K20C2 with their tuning software.

Handing turbo perfectly with this LX lmao because nobody has done it before doesn’t mean it’s not meant for it. I’m running perfectly fine, and have been for almost a week

Interestingly, US formula F4 racing cars are using the Honda K20C2 engines. Do your research my guy

Obviously & they started somewhere lmao you thought it just got built all in one day? It takes time obviously I’m gonna start to make this build stronger, and upgrade internals. No complaints, or regrets. Runs like a charm and sounds even better

Again what are you using to tune it when you do?

I’m probably gonna have to get a Motec M142 ecu then K tune it
If you have Motec M142 ECU you can't Ktuner it lol it will have to be someone with Motec tuning software which is different from Ktuner like Vit who can tune it. Probably cost you another $4-5K for motec ecu though not including tune which motec charges by the hour.

I would consult with Derek Robinson on the tuning aspect. It might be doable with just KTuner.
