Budget K Swap Turbo Civic Rips!
By Aaron Gaghagen and Brian Gillespie

OK, last time was a bit of a let down. When we went to the dyno our K23 turbo head-K20 bottom end combination spit oil all over the crank side and couldn't be tuned. So, with just a base tune we took our Civic hatchback back to the shop to take a closer look. Scot and Brian (No, the other one.) poured over the wet side of the engine to find the source and fix it. You know what that means! It's time to take Budget EG for a couple pulls. We find out if the half radiator is up to the task of cooling our hot tamale hybrid and make some sweet turbo noises.
