Need Help Building Project

Post by ElementUNIT »

:? i want to put a k20a in my 03 honda element automatic, frontwheel drive, :shock: Good deal :)
Option 1 buy a k20a head, and leave the automatic. Which would envolve tranmission upgrades. This would include me purchasing a chipped ecu, probally tuned by the members at hondata. Which might be costly, unless a tsx automatic ecu will work.
Or
Option 2 buy a whole new motor, transmission and do a complete swap with ecu, axels and all the equipment to change to a manual transmission. either way i know i will be spending more thank getting a supercharger but i want the authentic Vtec sound and feel, althogh im well aware of the weight to power ratio meaning the truck will still be slow but fun to drive.
Can someone please direct me in the right direction.
The Truck is sitting on 19's, and think maybe 18's in the back and 17's with nice thick tires in the front for good driving.
Thanks for any help.

It will be cheaper to sell the car and get one that is manual from the beginning.
