    It would be more interesting if you tuned it with the S2000 manifold first & then swapped, that way we could see what effect the cams had & then the new intake manifold.

    Personally, I care more about just watching you guys wrench on your cars than not seeing Dyno numbers that you may have promised earlier in the video. This build is sweet and is encouraging me to RWD K-swap something fun as well.

    Run the current manifold and injectors. Then show the difference with the k manifold. That thing isn't cheap. It'd be nice to know if it only makes 5hp over the current one so I don't have to buy it.

    Yes electronically limiting VTC to 45 degree works untill you mishft into a lower gear and boom, there goes the engine. I have lost one fully built K-24 worth 15000$ to this money shift. So always phyically limit them if using on a k24 engine. K24 stroke is longer, so at high rpms(11000-12000 RPm which happens in a mis-shift) piston slams into valves, valve drops and .....

    • @d0mochi

      Ok now I understand why people get the DC 40° physically limited. Thanks for explaining cause I always wondered why people change their rbc vtc when doing k24 with aggressive cams while some people with the same setup don’t change them
