Any rumblings of a K20C2 Turbo Kit?

I know this is a touchy subject but has there been any news about turboing the 2.0?

Don't they have the 2.0 turbo in the accord

I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would want to turbocharge the 2L instead of just buying the 1.5T in the first place. Sure, it can be done but is it worth it? No.

For science, and to see how far this engine can be pushed.

I don't claim to know what parts are out there compatible with the 2.0N/A that you find in the lower trim levels but to answer the question. Because if done right there's no downside and you'd have 33% more displacement which would be pretty nice to have in my eyes. Of course the 1.5t is cheaper to get the performance out of but when you have SI guys going all out with stronger internals, bigger turbos, new IC/piping, DP/exhaust, etc... you're pretty much throwing the money at it that would be required to properly boost something else that started life as an NA platform.

Jackson Racing is getting ready to release a supercharger kit for the 2.0.

That's not a turbo charger so it doesn't directly answer your question. But...

I checked with Jackson Racing regarding this interesting comment and they denied it.

"We will not be doing a kit for the Non Turbo Civics."

Because of their wording, I followed up with a question regarding the turbocharged models. Nothing there either.

I wanted his statement to be true too

I don't know what their current position is now, and I'll trust that 360glith has more current information, but I spoke to them in 2017 and that's what they said at that time. I contacted them to inquire about obtaining replacement pulleys for their D16 superchargers.

So...

There is a guy that put one on his and it is still running fine. His name is Markie Pacheco on Instagram, he lives in Florida from what it looks like. I ended up following him just to keep an eye on his civic and see how it does. Seems to be doing just fine. It can be done but all of the SI boys will hate on you for sure.
