I own a 03 civic with a k20a2 but I did not do the swap .I purchased the car with it already done .The only advice I have for you is to do a complete conversion ,I mean do the axels & brakes to you will need it the RSX brakes are the amazing .

Hey, about the K series swap...I own 2001 EM2.

K24(TSX) makes big difference to K20 (TYPE-S) ..

I dyno my k20a2 with a AEM stand alone and got 215hp ,took it to mosport and it ran amazing.Correct me if I am wronk but the TSX has a biger displacement but the RSX head and intake makes alot more power over the TSX.
