It's not too crazy meant to run on 91 gas with CR being only 12.5:1.

Thanks I am hesitant to cut it for more ducts or pins as well. If I were doing those modifications to the hood I would get the FRP version.

Got it all tuned and daily driving it around town right now. It put down 240 at 7800 rpm trying to keep it streetable the torque difference is what really eye popping.

I'm not an expert on the F24 from inlinePRO (although I live near them and had some stuff done with them when I had a Civic) but isn't 240whp little bit too low? Should be more like 270 ish no? I might be completely wrong so please educate me lol. But the torque curve is impressive even though it's only peaking 176 lb-ft.

It is about what is expected, I am really running into a bottleneck currently with the intake/ intake manifold and having issues with the exhaust currently it is not big enough I really need to go a 76mm size route vs the 60mm that is on there. I live in an area with many picky CHP and if I run what I need to get the car to flow better it ends up being loud and attracts unwanted attention. I am maybe contemplating on ITBs in the future just really need to work out the details on which system and the little details it requires. If I fix those issues I probably can get maybe 255 ish possibly 260. 270 is rather high for the compression I am running, which is only 12.5:1. You also have to remember that RWD has a bigger % loss vs a FWD K motor. I also can probably push more power if I push the cut off to a higher rpm as the motor is still making power, I just rather have some resemblance of sustainability as I still use the car as a weekend car here and there.

So just to update since a few people were asking about my 2.4l. It was burning somewhere of 4 to 5 quarts in about 800 miles of light use. So I am still trying to sort out what the problem is with it. It just ended up being excessive.

A little dirty and chips happening to the valve cover over the 13 years time I have owned the S. Anyways, so I found a fresh 2.2 block from Honda put it in and working with that currently. Threw in a mugen intake and ASM cooling plate that I was contemplating on using or not using before the 2.4 project went sideways. Now fixing stuff that has been long overdue to be replaced.
Upcoming plans on replacing the Throttle body and TCT and redoing the bushings.
