You're correct - I saw the S2000 transmission being used and started mixing F and K motor spec. My bad. That said, it still isn't a bad platform to start with, and the weight reduction is still very real.

I agree it's a great platform to start from if you eventually plan to do head work. In addition to weight reduction, it also looks to shift the cg rightwards and rearwards, which is good for LHD versions of the twins. Only problem with this setup is moving the cg up vertically by some amount. Low cg was the main benefit of the boxer IMO. (I don't think Subaru knows how to make anything else anyway, so that is probably just an excuse lol). |

True, but it's a higher cg for a lighter motor, and further rearward. Accessories are also lower, so if I had to guess, I'd say it's a wash.

How much will the entire swap package cost approximately? 5k like your LS and 2JZ packages?

What ECU will be used?
Any other options besides pricey Motec?? Would it be possible for Pure to collab with the K-Miata guys for an A/C kit for this swap?? |

Why not use the 5 speed bmw trans that are being used in Miatas?
This swap has my happy. If my FA blows, this is a possibility. My friends EK mad 240whp on e85 with a K24, and all "oem" honda parts inside. No aftermarket cams,and a meh header. |

we are working on a new way to drive the ecu cost down. there's still a fair amount of r&d that needs to be done but it is in progress starting with our current 2j vvti car. once that's sorted out, the same setup will be adapted to the K/F20 setup

Nothing oem works. If none of the oem features work, we don't want to use it. AEM and Haltech had no desire to work with us and we have been asking them for well over two years at this point so their loss. We are playing with another ecu that is very capable, but at this point we still have a lot to do software wise.

I'm guessing you're messing with EMTRON then. Only other ECU that has open Canbus and is known to work. Proefi has a locked canbus and wouldn't work on our local 2j swap
