For any of that, my personal recommendation would be Hi Power Racing - definitely seem to be the people to talk to regarding Honda's -------------------- ZOMG! 4FT FISHTANK SETUP WITH THE LOT FOR SALE!

QUOTE (Astrio @ Nov 7 2009, 02:31 AM) hey looking at getting an Honda Civic Type R EP3R wanting to know which workshop to get work done on an EP3R You may be surprised at how much you can get out of the K20A's by natural aspiration. But decide weather or not you want to spend the cash on having a reliable turbo Honda as it usually means forging. Having said that Hipower Racing can do either or depending on you're budget, as they have recently seen a customer run high 11's in a street registered B series turbo EK, and they are building up a K powered CRX drag car. -------------------- HIPOWER RACING Home of the best Japanese parts in Brisbane

I have never seen a turbo EP3R though I guess? I personally would go for a very aggressive ITB K20a if I had the moolah but I guess the FI route is okay too...

Have you looked into the costs of turboing a EP3? I know a DECENT ECU is going to set you back around $1700-$2000... not including tuning.
If I had the money sitting around to turbo my DC5R, I would look into doing a proper K24/20 build. -------------------- Silver 2002 Honda Integra Type R

The one that comes to mind straight away is the 999/Top Fuel DC5R. Either th eperson driving didn't know how to drive it, or it just had way to much power, as it only had axel tramp. But if your offering... I would love to be proven wrong. -------------------- Silver 2002 Honda Integra Type R
