You are reffering to the motor in their white wide body S2K?

I think they are still testing that motor, but rumor is when they get the bugs worked out they were going to market the turbo kit. I sure hope they do, but it will probably cost an arm and a leg

That is one sick set up though

well they couldn't just offer the turbo kit alone, at least not at that spec... the motor is lowered compression with JUN internals.

some rumors have spread saying the amuse turbo motor has "custom internals", making it a stroker. I highly doubt they used the k24 crank with modified h22 rods and pistons, amuse isnt cheap. i dont think they will offer their turbo kit for street production, it would cost too much money and the market is low for a product like that.

i read that it's a 2.4 litre stroker built by JUN with the custom turbo manifold by amuse and an HKS turbo.

it is a 2.4, but the k24 crank with h22 pistons and rods is also a 2.4

i highly doubt amuse used OEM modified honda parts, JUN definately seems like their style.

hows your suspension since its probably broken in? i want to see more pics of your car. i have some goodies on order for this month
