JDM K24A Tune Help

Good afternoon guys,

Currently about to finish my swap but I am way over budget and really cannot afford a professional tune for a while.

Hoping to get some guidance or if someone can show me how to tune it well enough to still be dailyable, AND KEEP THE ENGINE SAFE.

I bought a low mile 40k estimated K24A and really want to protect it...



Here are my specs...

K24A from a 07 tsx, (later model that has the little bit higher end engine)

50 degree vtc gear

Rsx type s throttle body, 62mm bore, but plan to bore to 64mm to match the 07 rbb manifolds 64mm. (I am using a skunk 2 72/74mm adapter plate)

Hybrid racing intake system, which is a 3" tube with 3" velocity stack and filter

Skunk 2 Alpha 4-2-1 header, for a 02-06 rsx

skunk 2 mega rr 76mm exhaust for a 02-06 rsx

5 speed k20 ep3 transmission

oem exedy clutch

Stock fuel, Oem spark plugs, everything else not mentioned is stock.

I will have a High output alt if that matters.



Let me know how yall can help, i would appreciate it.

I suggest you start by using the stock tsx calibration. It’s will not use the 50vtc but you can dial it in to get the car running until you get it properly tuned.
