After the incident with the first engine builder, Mark Dibella of MD Automotive took the lead in getting the Honda-K-powered Exige back on track. This time, RS Machine of Norwalk, CA would properly prepare the Honda motor for a supercharger. To handle the higher cylinder pressures, forged 10:1 pistons from CP Piston were hung on Carrillo forged connecting rods. The rods connect to the blueprinted K24 crankshaft. ARP head bolts secure the built bottom end to the K20A2 cylinder head from a 2002-04 RSX Type-S. This i-VTEC head provides variable cam timing and airflow capabilities superior to other Honda K-series heads. These aspects are further improved upon by a set of BC Brian Crower Stage-2 camshafts, valve springs and retainers. Full Story in PDF
