Keep an eye on the vacuum lines to the wastegate. I was using a synapse that would melt the vacuum lines... I had to switch to a JGS that had proper fittings on it so I could run telfon/AN lines to it.



Boost is fun. This is my stock K24 at around 450whp... basically 10mph per second with roughly 70-80% throttle:

What size turbo and PSI?

Bigger than what you're going with: GT35R w/ 1.06AR ... T4. On track, it does well... slower corners feels a little sluggish as it ramps up, but very controllable. I'm curious what a smaller AR would do to the response... I originally wanted a 800whp setup, but at 550whp, it's scary -- this setup will pull on a Radical SR8 / 911 turbos / ZR1s.
Boost is at 16psi, peak at 18psi.


The transmission is a quaife sequential, dog engagement. I know they make a box for the S2000 -- but you'd have to get the flat shift... it's the best thing ever.

Always impressed by someone who fitted a dog-gear, straight-cut sequential transmission.

At that power level, did the Quaife require an oil cooler, I thought they came with an oil pump? Would the Quaife have supported 800hp? I thought they are rated for 750hp; did you decide on the Quaife after you decided to stick at 550hp? Did you consider paddle shifters?

Ian, where did you fit the brake ducts with the oil cooler taking up one of the front openings?

Here's one of the stock K24A2 with a RSX-S oil pump and VTC gear, RBC intake manifold. 403whp is at 12psi and pump gas, 510whp is at 15psi on E85. This is a conservative tune, as my tuner does primarily tune cars for race/track use and understands that, if you can't finish a race, you can't win the race. So, he does his best to tune towards richer AFRs and not run as much timing.


Current build is darton sleeve block, 10:1 CR w/ CP pistons, manly rods, supertech valvetrain, and DC2.2 cams. The engine is sitting at 550whp at same hp -- didn't make much more power, I wanted the engine to be more reliable than powerful.

I haven't found the need just yet -- but I am still pulling data for everything. I'll be sending the oil into blackstone here shortly to see how it tests and I'll make a decision then.
Quaife doesn't come with a pump, but does have provisions for it.

Would the Quaife have supported 800hp? I thought they are rated for 750hp; did you decide on the Quaife after you decided to stick at 550hp? Did you consider paddle shifters?
Quaife rates most their gearboxes at 300hp... which is pointless since torque is what kills gears. But, there are dozens of drag racers who have been using the gearbox in 800hp+ cars, varying from Eliges, to MR2s, to Civics...
Paddle shifters add more weight and complexity -- both of which I do not want. Car weighs ~2350lbs, adding paddle shifters means you need another pump, associated hardware, etc, etc. Sure, it may only be 20-30lbs, but it adds up.
I got the quaife after I sheared a gear in the stock RSX-S gearbox. Kseries gearboxes are notoriously weak, very much like the AP1 diffs.
