Ben, ur should port out rbc intake manifold, u can easily make like 10-15hp more than 259whp the throttle body size is perfect 72mm, 80mm was oversized
you’re super lucky to have Andy helping you with this whole swap. on top of being super knowledgeable about what he’s doing, he also seems like a really genuine and humble dude. glad to see the civic coming together so nicely, man. can’t wait to see it on the road/track.
@@upnorthviking823 it's not easy, but it's complicated. It feels like you're playing puzzles, and btw the car parts are expensive. Like turbos, brakes, pedals....
Never watched a more satisfying video on youtube. This series has been the best you ever made. Rock on guys and keep making cool videos.. Hope to see a track day video soon 🙂
Loved this car with the b16, and this took it to the next level. Loved watching the transformation. Clean and quality build, and 260+hp are crazy good numbers.
Wow! I've watched all 4 episodes of you K Swapping your Honda Civic. Great work documenting and editing everything. Everything is in focus, audio is good, commentary audio is good and background music is on point. The guys a ASM are super mad talented and skilled at what they do and it's very cool and amazing that K-Tuned had the parts that you needed for your swap. I enjoyed watching this video. Hats off to you man. Great work! 👏🏽 👍🏽 ✅
Dude there is like 5000 650hp civics all over UA-cam. It's a normal thing nowadays. There's a 2000hp civic that set a record of 7 seconds in the quarter mile. The b series and k series Honda motors can handle a lot of power. Their built really strong
@@christiandevos9280 your perception of horsepower has been ruined, unless you're going in a straight line you don't need stupid amounts of horsepower, 270whp is more than enough on track, especially with the low weight which I assume is around 1000kg.
270hp with some good suspension upgrades on a honda playing on a track is a great platform to have some good fun and put down some decent lap times. Why would you need 2000 hp? Hp doesnt replace driver mod around corners.. Lol
This is probably the most beautiful series on youtube. It makes me genuinely happy. So glad to see such amazing people working on something so beautiful and just being happy
Seeing your grin on your face as the car is being dynoed and seeing the numbers pop on the screen is awesome. Thumbs up and kuddos to the tuner, he was pleasantly surprised.
i was literally thinking about 3 mins ago as to when are you guys gonna upload another episode of this series, then i reload my youtube home screen and viola! new episode uploaded!
This is why i love your channel. Building cars that are fast, yet practical and useful. And done by yourself and help of tuners and not done ONLY by the tuners. This channel gets much respect. I always wanted to get a Honda like this, but theft of Hondas in Hawaii is ridiculous, so Im sticking with my 2011’ Subaru Legacy gt (formerly had a 05 lgt, 05 sti, 05 fxt)...if you ever get tired of your fxt and want to sell, let me know since you got a Honda now,...
GEARS N GAS, I want to thank you all. I have a 99 Teg and for over a year I have been wanting to do a K24 swap. Thank you for shedding light on a parts tuner company that caters to it. You Guys are awesome. Next year I'll have my car built. I'll send pics. Now Ill just have to find a tuner like your boy or maybe he wouldnt mind If I schedule with him? Great job
That's an impressive power band i do like the feel of N/A engines myself.. Wish i had this kinda of support back in the day for my SR20VE.. I'm going to be looking at K-tune's catalog for my future projects.. good stuff
Fighting a cold right now and rediscovered y'all's page. Thank you, your content, editing, personalities, just been loving ever moment over the last 3 days of binging your page.
All the Honda Bois at home with their home garage built hatches watching this as if they were watching Adult Entertainment... that's some serious work all of you! Enjoy it Ben, and NEVER EVER get rid of it!
People act like swapping a k series is simple and straight bolt in but it’s a lot of work and money. I love how you guys talked about over doing fuel. It’s soo many people I know throwing double pumpers in a regular size turbo car. Then they say “I’m building it for the future.”
This brings back memories, in 2010 I bought a S2000 with a Bad piston due to oil starvation. I Resleeved the block with 2mm melling repair sleeves, Added a K24 Honda Accord Crankshaft, Wiesco pistons and K1 rods. Stock Valvetrain, Cams and exhaust. It increased the torque by 50ftlbs and 50-60hp. It was a ~300hp flywheel HP setup and really made this S2000 fun to drive with the extra torque. FYI We notched the pistons and keept the oil squirters, while everyone deletes them.
Nothing like a $500 junkyard motor to make the same power. :P Should check out some times I've hit with a J32. It is a fun swap for sure. Not many go that route.
It has been an absolute pleasure watching this series Ben and team. You are all absolutely incredible individuals and your passion for cars is contagious.
This was excellent. I moved to euros 15 years ago, but K series and EKs will always have a special place in my heart. Incredible what a relatively minimal build on the right combination of K parts will make.
Im not a huge Honda fan, but I must give credit where credit is due, these guys pulled 260hp out of a 2.4L NA 4 banger is impressive. Good Job....Pays to have friends that know what they are doing 👍😎
Awesome build series. Power band looks dialed-in and the motor sound very smooth. I love build series like this. Love the courtesy rev at the end :). Thank you for sharing.
So satisfying watching everything come together. Getting me excited for when it's my time to do an engine build and start everything from scratch. Coming out the other side with a smooth powerband and clean car. Great work Ben(s) and guys at KTuned.
Very nice build and video series. Looks like a solid 300hp at the motor from a essentially a stock K24 with cams, even more impressive is an honest 250 lb-ft of torque, must be amazing to cruise around on the street! You were right about the V6 thing, thats about what my VQ35HR makes!
Growing up in the late 90s and 2000s, I've wanted so badly to build this car just to finally make some clean and fast out of a civic. Everything was half assed. Good to see it done right.

finally finished!! looking foward for the next episode of the k-swapped civic, which is turning it into a track monster 😈😂😂
It’s like quarantine Christmas

Put ITB's on it
I'm not sure, but I think he used K-tuned parts in this build, just a hunch.
What gave us that idea? ;)
I sure hope that they gave him the parts and paid for the labor, cause this much advertising is worth much more.
Richard Howle I mean if u seen all the parts he got and see the prices on them..the parts alone is good payment lol
man like every part ... ballin!!!
Was the oil pan k tune or was that moroso.
you’re super lucky to have Andy helping you with this whole swap. on top of being super knowledgeable about what he’s doing, he also seems like a really genuine and humble dude.
glad to see the civic coming together so nicely, man. can’t wait to see it on the road/track.
Foreign Beggar
Andy helping? Andy and the Asian guy pretty much did the entire swap.
Ktuned : "Yeah, we got a part for that."
I only use K-tuned wrenches and sockets to install K-tuned parts!
Deadass
K-Tuned Blinker Fluid
They got it in stock about 3x more expensive than you'd guess but yup lol
Ben: “It will bug my OCD having to offset a little bit.”
Del Sol owners: Am I a joke to you?
That drives me crazy on the DelSol. When it gets a K that is getting a full size rad and with any luck power like this K24
LMAOOOOO
Bruh
there are people k swapping a del sol?! tf, that thing is a go kart
I actually teared up when I saw 268whp. That is such a satisfying sight. Good job guys. Proud of you all.
After watching this series, i learned swapping engines and tuning is so hard man...
Fact. And expensive.
A well built K swap isn't that bad. They're just using Gucci parts for the sake of it on alot of this build. Sponsoredlife I guess lol
😂 And people just saying LS swap it man
Its easy...
@@upnorthviking823 it's not easy, but it's complicated. It feels like you're playing puzzles, and btw the car parts are expensive. Like turbos, brakes, pedals....
Ah this makes me miss my b18c swapped EK... this thing is a dream build!
hi
I didn't know you had one of those
I didn’t know you were into cars like THAT
I can’t believe it’s Saturday again already! Obsessed with gears and gasoline guys. I watched your road trip twice during quarantine.
Deejay Mercado Same!
Me too
Same, those road trip series are lit
In my opinion there is still something so important missing.
A K-Tuned sticker
Theres something else, lack of stock engine parts per that car model
Turbo
Imagine every part coming with a free sticker. And he put everyone on the car.
Alexander1485 what?
Probably would have pushed it to 270whp
I don't think I've ever been this early to school.
Real talk
THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME BE A PART OF THIS BEAUTIFUL PROJECT
Ben:Has a 80mm throttle body
Buys a 72mm throttle body
Also ben: "Hmm looks about 8mm smaller"
I feel so touching at the end of watching the whole k swapping episodes.
KTuned: what parts do you need?
GandG: yes
Love this build! So satisfying to watch! Keep up the amazing content!
Ben: "no need to over kill"
Also Ben: Puts a huge ass throttle body
Plus add 1050cc injectors on a NA. Add a turbo please
@@Methodwake its on e85 so thats also a reason
He cut it down later in the video to a 72 but yeah lol
That's not even the biggest one, they make a 90mm
And a 3” exhaust on a sub 2 liter NA car.
Never watched a more satisfying video on youtube. This series has been the best you ever made. Rock on guys and keep making cool videos.. Hope to see a track day video soon 🙂
I'm from Italy. It's 1.37 AM, and I'm crying.
Thank you. For real, thank you.
That ending brought a tear to my eye. You guys are awesome.

270whp in in a little civic is insane, it will definitely murder a lot of higher horsepower cars around a track.

Christian De Vos Yeah but on a NA motor? 270 Is insane
Christian De Vos all tho this civic is not going to go straight. Big horsepower don’t mean u gonna be faster than everyone ales in a circuit

Can someone do a "how many" K-Tuned's are said during the video?
At least 1
João Ferreira that’s what you call sponsor😅
Sorry I missed it. K what? Where?
How places is he gonna put k tuned stickers and how many?
If k tuned is willing too send me parts I can make a video and say ktuned 3x more.
That exhaust sounds so much better than I was expecting. Nice and smooth, aggressive, but not shrill.
This channel is so awesome. If you do an event in Wisconsin ever I'm there!
Seeing your grin on your face as the car is being dynoed and seeing the numbers pop on the screen is awesome. Thumbs up and kuddos to the tuner, he was pleasantly surprised.
Bro that EK sounds good! Especially on that last 30seconds of the vid!
the sound of exhaust is just awesome, not to loud, no resonating, just pure deep sound of power
"Load her back to virginia"
me: "Alexa play country roads"
That's the type of friend ever guy wishes he had. Good job guys
@7:57 Wow wow, I didn’t know I was watching Mighty Car Mods
I never had someone explain corner weighing like he has. You learn something new everyday.
Ben: How many parts do you have for a k swap?
K Tuned: Yes
So the throttle body's butterfly valve opens at right time. And nicely to get that sweet power band. Awesome build. Great job.!!

Wow so happy for you Ben!! Thing looks and sounds great!
Just a side note, I love the shot at 27:41
10/10 fellas, rubs hands* now it’s time for the evo

I'm waiting for an E swapped my Honda Civic. So sad we're not getting the Honda E in the states.
The music is awesome. Adds suspense to the build and mid-air high fives at the end are hilarious!
Didn't think there'd be comments this early. But considering 600k+ subs, go figure.
Incredible build so reliable and strong really happy you got this car done!

Me: Builds 10k Civic
Also me: never drives it for fear of police harassment or fear of it getting stolen everywhere you go
I smiled so much when they got the first dyno number
LMAO "it looks smaller than the 80mm, it looks hmmm 8mm smaller" who would have thought that a 72mm is 8mm smaller then a 80mm.
He was being sarcastic

Ronald finger and Gears and Gasoline in one day?!? what kind of wizardry is this? I'm love'n it!
I like how you guys show stuff that doesn’t work.. not like others that show everything working seamlessly the first time
Best video I've seen in a while boys! Awesome! Andy is the best.

now we need a trackday and your best audio gear recording those sweet intake and exhaust sounds all day!!!
Love the Bromance at the end. You guys killed it.

Awesome build! I’m personally swapping a b18c5 into my white Ek, gonna be sick to see the difference!
The k-swap and the evo series are the best!!!! keep on doing what you doing!
Holy crap you were right on the money.. 268 hp n/a can’t wait to see what that beast can do at the track. Officially my favorite swapped n/a EK9!
Sick results! So happy to see such quality build. And it sounds JUST perfect!
Very nice build and video series. Looks like a solid 300hp at the motor from a essentially a stock K24 with cams, even more impressive is an honest 250 lb-ft of torque, must be amazing to cruise around on the street! You were right about the V6 thing, thats about what my VQ35HR makes!

Each and every video you guys make are so informative and beautiful! Keep it up, guys.
wow unbelievable Kswap k tuned has wonderful skills i appreciate his work keep it up K tunes.
as someone who driving ek like me, this series really enjoyable. man, i wish someday i have time & money to do this kind of thing. keep it up ben!
