ek9 turbo to k24 ep3

[lyle robb]

hi i currently have my vsm ek9 turbo up for sale and im considering replacing it with a k24 ep3, does anyone have any experiance of how a k24 ep3 will compare to the ek9? cheers

I don't think many people have done the k24 conversion? most seem to just supercharge or turbo the k20 block.

One thing I will say is, go and test drive an ep3 if you haven't already. It doesn't give you anywhere near as much feedback due to the electronic steering setup, and it's a major thing that I have always hated about it. IMO, it ruined the car.......

I'm currently putting a k24 into my ek9 but it won't be ready for another few weeks. Your ek9 will be much more fun though. I've had both

Had a couple of ep3's and my personal preference is the 9 now

A lot more entertaining and rewarding to drive

My mate has a k24 ep3 , and its mega. Has about 200+ on the torque and 250bhp with simple bolt ons and a map!. And imo ek9s are far to overpriced !
