In this thrilling episode from StanceWorks, the team unveils their new four-piston K20 engine, a powerhouse destined to breathe new life into the 244 GTK project. Despite the engine swap, they defiantly retain the original name, embracing the K20's square design with matched bore and stroke for enhanced durability. Delving into the engine's origins as a Honda K20 A2 from Four Piston Racing, the crew outlines the necessary modifications ahead, from engine mounts to turbo tweaks, setting the stage for an adrenaline-fueled adventure.
As the team unboxes the new engine, remnants of the old one lay scattered, revealing the brutal aftermath of blown rods and pistons. With plans to harness 5-600 horsepower from the K20, the focus shifts to spark plug selection, coil pack upgrades, and coolant system adjustments. The narrative unfolds with meticulous attention to detail, highlighting the intricate process of cleaning, reassembly, and strategic reconfiguration of components like the water neck setup for optimal performance.
Amidst the assembly frenzy, a comedic interlude featuring a neighbor's discovery of the rev limiter adds a dash of humor to the intense engine rebuilding saga. The team's dedication to precision shines through as they navigate challenges in the oil system modifications, seeking innovative solutions from TrackT to ensure seamless integration of an oil filter relocation kit. The episode culminates in a heart-pounding ride in an Audi Sport Quattro, igniting a fire of inspiration in the StanceWorks crew to propel their own Audi project to legendary heights.
