Same experience with the Hondata basemaps.. And I am also in the NE with similar elevation and weather.. I tried all 3 k24 maps.. The CRV, the standard TSX k24a2, and the bolt on K24a2.. They all had my car idling wonky and running super rich.
Congratulations, I've been following your build. Just picked up my first 8th gen Civic SI last year. Only had 66,000 mi on it and it was bone stock! My son and I have been working on it and I just started autocrossing it a couple weeks ago here in Connecticut.
The reason the CRV basemap sucks has to do with having it’s VTEC at 2200 RPM. This is because the CRVs use VTEC-E, which is designed for fuel economy instead of power. No idea how to “fix” that myself, though. I’m not sure if it’s a limitation of the camshafts or the entire head/rocker assembly itself. Or maybe it’s possible to push the VTEC crossover above your redline so that you’ll be able to use all 16 valves for the full powerband (VTEC-E basically turns your engine into a 12 valve engine when it engages.) If my explanation doesn’t make much sense, just leave a comment and I’ll try to explain more clearly. I’d love to of any help, if possible. Hopefully this information helps you get a little closer to a solution so you can continue squeezing every bit of power that you can out of that engine. Great work so far man, can’t wait to see what’s next in store!
I stumbled onto this channel for a DIY vid and subscribed just because you're regular dude like me with a 8th gen si. I Personally went k20/k24a and think its the best of both worlds. z3 valve train is beefier and head has better flow. I'm at 230/185 whp but 2 1/2 exhaust is definitely a restriction on a k24.
Hey Gerb, what has worked for me when replacing the coolant is to leave the cap open, start the car and you will see bubbles and the fluid drain down as it gets warmer, then you keep topping it off until it won’t take anymore and the bubbles should disappear eventually.
Bro I never seen some so happy 💪🏿💪🏿 I can't wait to put my f23a back in my accord and pop some gears . Damn car been sitting for almost a year now with problem after problem.
i would definitely go with TuningbNick. Awesome dude! im fortunate enough to live close by his shop. Just recently got a tune from him for my 9th gen civic si and that man is a magician!
Cjei Canorino I also have a 9th gen man, whats up 👍🏻. Are you FBO? I just recently got my hondata and I’m waiting to get my down pipe on along with my catback and then look into a tune. Curious to know your mods and numbers you got after a tune 😃
@@louis1234_ ayeee 9th gen buddy! right now im pretty much FBO. my rbc manifold is not ported. but when i got the car tuned, it made 215whp thats on a 25+ degrees celsius environment (not very ideal for tuning lol) one of the last few pulls couldve made 220+ but the clutch slipped so didnt really count that as an actual pull. Buddy of mine also has the same setup as me and he got tuned when it was around 15degrees celsius; he made 223whp
Nice my man 👍🏼,it’s a whole different beast enjoy it put some miles on it then maybe down the road go for boost man either a supercharger or turbo,I’m slapping a turbo on my fa5 soon that would really put a big smile on ur face haha
Gerb well I swapped it about a year ago cause I cracked the block and warped the head. And now about a week ago, I ran low on oil not knowing. There was a rattling sound but I thought it was a loose heat shield or bracket as I just installed headers. It was not the heat shield. It was the motor. I put about 2 quarts of oil to make it home but I didn’t end up making it home and had to call a tow truck. And now here I am putting a k24 in again. At least I don’t need to buy any of the parts that are needed to fit the k24 🤷🏻♂️ & I got a pretty good deal on the motor
Isaac Valenzuela Damn man... gotta keep an eye on the oil, especially if you’re driving it hard. I check my oil everyday lol. Did you have the oil light on your dash? And hey, at least you have all the parts like you said...
Doesn't the CRV use economy VTEC? So it goes from 3-valve to 4-valve low lift at ~2k RPM? I would think with the performance k24 that you swapped you'd actually lose torque down low with the high cam engaging that early. Either way, nice to see it running again!
@@morrisreyes7061 it depends on the urethane u choose 70a isnt bad but if u get higher they vibrate more but when u wear them in the less the vibrate so hard
DUUUUDE! Thank you for all the videos there a huge help! I have the same car and my z3 took a $#!+ Im doing a K24 swap with a type s oil pump! Keep 🔧brother!
I have Hasport U62a street engine mounts all the way around... just FYI rear mounts will rumble your interior a bit (louder then usual) but you will adapt 2 it... Keep the content coming bro!! 👍🏼🤙🏼💨
Oh boy, RUclips recommended something that I’m actually interested in. A k24 swapped 8th gen! Love it. Want to do the same with my 8th gen someday. Might run forced induction too.
Its a 2.0 liter vs a 2.4 liter... they pretty much make similar hp and the k24 makes a little more tq. In a drag race the 2.4 MAY beat it by 2-3 cars.. its not typically a huge difference.
Honda Guy82 no quarter miles times, but I do have some old pulls, so I’ll probs do like a side by side comparison k20 vs k24. My new k24 has the same HP as my k20z3, 197hp, stock. Only difference really is torque, rev limiter, and where the power comes in. I honestly love both, it’s hard to pick which is better and alll that jazzzzz. But I will let you all know which one I prefer and why..
Gerb awesome thanks man! Im worried that the grinding issue is my synchros and not my cmc now. It feels better after a fluid change but still grinds. Do you think changing the cmc would still be worth it before i just rebuild my trans?
Nice bro. Needs an n1 exhaust lol. See you still using the air freshener that I gave ya at last hday lol. Cant wait for the next hday and to chill with ya and see the new engine. My devsport splitters finally came. Cant wait to get them on the car. Also got my 410 injectors. No more buying parts for my car for a while now, lol🤐🤐
Gerb bro quick question I have a 8th gen civic (lx 1.8) its possible to swap a K24 into a regular civic… or do I have to get the K24 plus a Si computer?
man im pulling a gerb my self have two different short rams and after running both and having issues with heat soak and bogging im now looking into a cold air lmao. Waiting for a video of watching midnight rip lol have a good evening man
Where are you getting your info? Exedy stage 1 is good for 193 flywheel tq lol. Exedy oem, who knows haha.. nah, I’ll probs be at like 175-180tq, it’s basically stock.
FIRST!
Who cares, grow up and add something of substance.
Right🤦♂️ fucking HATE these people😫.
@@johnnyturbo8460 Same to ya!
@@stickboyfpv4742 Then quit commenting on "these people's" posts.

I know the feelings l got My K24-a2 with K20 on the top and its so fast and hasn’t let me down own it.
“this is the day” -30days ago Gerb
Yup, Swaps been done. 2k on the new motor and smiling every minute 🤘🏼
So damn happy for you achieving your goals ! You have always stayed true to you and your cause good job dude
Glad you recognize the grind bro 🙏🏼
I never gotten so nervous over a video my boy gerb out here 💯😈
And gerb i been looking at k24 at jdmdepot.com and they raised the price to $900 you got lucky and I got unlucky lol
FA5 Joe $900! I wonder why they raised the price?

CG5~GANG! It was the feeling of accomplishment 🤘🏼... Get her done, you got this
So excited for this new chapter
That makes two of us 👌🏼
Love the vids! I was really hoping for you to say F-IT and open it up on the back roads haha
I thought about it, but the basemap was running like poo, so I didn't want to risk anything.
This video made me smile ahahaha, congrats man! Happy for you!
Glad you enjoyed it... I love this damn car!

Long time follower...Congrats bro 🤙🏽
OG... Thanks man.. It all paid off
So stoked for you man! Can’t wait for the day I can get a better engine in my 8th gen Civic.
Better? the k20z3 is already a legendary engine
Maybe you have r18
Francis Fairfield the z3 is definitely no joke when it makes its power and it’s a rev machine that my k24a won’t touch top end.
Wait a moment, the best of all the video... the air intake... jaja! Great work bro!
Alberto Ricord best intake you can buy 🤣🤣
This is awesome man cant wait for more videos
New video drops Thursday or Friday, hopefully 🤘🏼
Well its about time!!!!
Subbed as soon as I seen the plate. Good to see a fellow crap stater.
You so happy ...great video
Nice my man 👍🏼,it’s a whole different beast enjoy it put some miles on it then maybe down the road go for boost man either a supercharger or turbo,I’m slapping a turbo on my fa5 soon that would really put a big smile on ur face haha
the crv has a ivtec-e which engages all 4 valves per cylinder after 2200 rpm and not the regular ivtec that increases valve lift
Very awesome man! You should be proud of your work!
Thanks man, I am! It was truly a crazy experience that I’ve been taking about for some time now. Still can’t believe it
Talking ***
Looks and works awesome. Good job.
Great job man I’m proud of you 👍
Nice video homie! Cars seeming good! My buddy is swapping in a k24 in his Si aswell
Thanks, it’s very powerful. Everyone is going k24 lol
Doing my a second k24 swap in my fg2 starting tomorrow!
Isaac Valenzuela how come number 2?
Yeah man what gives..?!

Only thing you’re really breaking in is the clutch right? Everything thing else is used correct?
bro youre out by me im over in suffield grew up in east windsor! i have a fa5 love your channel
krayzeddd Small world. I work in East Windsor sometimes 🤣... Fa5 ftw! And thanks for the love homie 🙏🏼
Sound really good gerb!👍🏾👍🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾 sounds like a 9th gen almost.
72a if you get that mount, that's the sweet spot. Nice work Gerb!!
Joe Regits was thinking 62a because it’s rated for 250hp and will probs have slightly less vibrations
Hardrace motor mounts are by far the best. Makes it feel like oem with sick mounts. Hardrace parts for life
Congrats 🥳. Funny though, my Stang has literally double the torque of the K20Z3. It’s fun having torque 😎
It should, its engines is twice the size. Smh
Gerb do you have a hard time taking off your k24 valve cover. I have the 8th gen si also and I don’t want to pull the motor mount any suggestions??
Lmaoo I’ve been waiting for this video 😂🔥
Doesn't the CRV use economy VTEC? So it goes from 3-valve to 4-valve low lift at ~2k RPM? I would think with the performance k24 that you swapped you'd actually lose torque down low with the high cam engaging that early. Either way, nice to see it running again!
Deaaaaaaaaammm nice Ride Dude🔥
Thanks my dude 🙏🏼
I'm thinking about grabbing a k24 block and building it for next summer..
Do it, you won’t regret it
Make sure u get that rear motor mount from hasport my stock one snapped in half with the torque from the k24
King Skill going to order it on Friday 🤘🏼
Have you tried innovative a lot of guys says it vibrates less the hasport
@@morrisreyes7061 it depends on the urethane u choose 70a isnt bad but if u get higher they vibrate more but when u wear them in the less the vibrate so hard

Thanks man 🙏🏼... I have to tell you, all the hard work is worth it! The torque from 3k-7k is awesome.
K24A2 in my TSX with RBC style manifold and flashpro
What is the bare minimum you need to make the k24 work in the 8th gen civic I’ve been looking but find no answers
Hey Gerb you have any quarter mile times with the old setup, some hard data to compare for later?
Its a 2.0 liter vs a 2.4 liter... they pretty much make similar hp and the k24 makes a little more tq. In a drag race the 2.4 MAY beat it by 2-3 cars.. its not typically a huge difference.

@@TheGerbsteve That's a fact Jack! Now that's much more honest then how the video portrayed it. 😁👍🇺🇸 (i can thumbs up that)

Congrats Gerb! Are you still running the same full ktuned master and slave clutch cylinders? Im having grinding issues.
Ktuned cmc, oem slave
Gerb awesome thanks man! Im worried that the grinding issue is my synchros and not my cmc now. It feels better after a fluid change but still grinds. Do you think changing the cmc would still be worth it before i just rebuild my trans?
*_Looks like fun!_* I don’t think I can do an engine swap though. Barely approaching ~65,000 Mile* (if I converted correctly)

Daaaaamn bro good for you!!! Mad props🙏🤙👌 doing it yourself out back!!! That will make you feel gooood about yourself getting that done!!!
You did it!

Is this engine gasoline or diesel sound like a Diesel engine
Its probably getting rid of all the rust thats in it lol

Stock 310cc injector and oil pump?
Yeah
what state are you at bro? i love the scenery.
Connecticut bro. There are some nice roads and scenery here for sure 🤘🏼
Yo gerb how did you fix the clear coat on the civic? I have a 2008 and have the same problem.
Sturdy pencil it’s hard to tell, but I still have clear coat issues on my driver side rear window pillar 👎🏼...
I have a k20a3 I cant get up hills with that little effort. I can't wait to get a 2.4 lol
Gerb bro quick question I have a 8th gen civic (lx 1.8) its possible to swap a K24 into a regular civic… or do I have to get the K24 plus a Si computer?
It is, but it’s going to require more money/work. You need engine, ecu, mounts, etc
@@TheGerbsteve thank you bro I like very much ALL your videos. Stay safe and blessed
I knew you were keeping rebuilt z3 head a surprise lol should of made of video of install
💯 I’m going to eBay turbo brother but that’s a nice set up congrats

Would you ever install
an aftermarket exhaust gerb ?
Kvng cub idkkk man, I’ve been through 3 budget ones so far lol. I guess if I did anything, it’d be a custom 2.5” or 2.75” max!
Gerb what happened to the budget ones
Kvng cub started sounding shitty, so I sold them all lol. Only two I liked were the skunk2 and yonaka.
Alright Gerb all were waiting for now is that moon tune now that the CAI is on lol.
Moon tune to send me off to space with kid cudi lol... And I love the CAI by the way ;)
man im pulling a gerb my self have two different short rams and after running both and having issues with heat soak and bogging im now looking into a cold air lmao.
Waiting for a video of watching midnight rip lol have a good evening man
Third times a charm lol.
Cold air just makes the car run soooo much more better and smoother. Make sure you run a hydro shield.
these engines got loud valves naturally
Get on it!
Congrats
So is that K24a from a Japanese crv or tsx? Cause you probably should run a tsx map if it’s a normal 3 lobe vtec motor.
Japan spec tsx/accord type s. We tuned now, so she is so much more healthy and smoother.
Gerb can’t wait to see it rip!
Gerb you have an ig bro?
Twisted_717 @gerb_productions

I was gonna say that motor is sitting up super high in the bay. Looks like it barely clears.
Kaiser yeah it sits high, but it works!
definitely looks like a Connecticut driveway.. lmao. sweet swap, i live in Bethel
You could say that lol. Thanks bro! You’re way out in the boonies 🤣
Yo gerb I just finished my k24a2 swap and now I’m have throttle problems? Is there a throttle relay I have to do? Or? Need help?
What throttle body are you using ?
Gerb stock throttle and body

Is that a twisted
Road sodaaaa
that engine is the one with my wife's car 07 honda element sc
Low compression tho
Is this the 3 lobe k24a or the 2 lobe ?

What kind of exhaust is that?
Stock midpipe with Megan axle back
35mph in 4th gear??? Wow
Fast isn’t it 🤣
Idk where you get your ideas but 1000 miles is not break in period. It’s 500 miles.
Wrong. It’s actually 750 for the clutch I have. So we are both wrong
Gerb what clutch is it?
oDanii - PS3 exedy oem
Gerb that k24 is gonna spin that clutch lol exedy stage 1 is rated for 150wtq.. you’re about to make 190 with that k24
Where are you getting your info? Exedy stage 1 is good for 193 flywheel tq lol. Exedy oem, who knows haha.. nah, I’ll probs be at like 175-180tq, it’s basically stock.
Tune it to open up at like 3000-3500 rpm
It was @4k rpm, but my tuner found the most power at 4200 rpm lower, 5800 upper
Put on the k20 head n the type s oil pump and you will beat every car you race
Waiting to do my oil pump, just bought one not long ago
You better take some oil out from your engine 4.5 quarter
