  • DC5 buy and motor info HELP!!!!

    ok so im gunna buy a new car pretty much decided on a dc5 im under the impression that the 05 type s is the one i want because the 06 motor did not come with the K20Z1 rated at 210 hp it came with the one rated at 201 hp now is this just a measureing diffrence or is the motor actualy diffrent because i know the 05 came with Higher performance camshafts sourced from the Type-R engine An enlarged throttle body sourced from the Type-R engine Air intake duct enlarged for increased air flow Larger diameter exhaust pipes to increase exhaust flow obtained from the Type-R model
    Catalytic converter optimized to reduce exhaust backpressure and 6-speed transmission optimized with a lower final gear ratio for quicker acceleration and carbon synchronizers replacing brass on 5th and 6th gears for a smoother shift feel so can somone please let me know if im on the right path or if im just being filled with smoke by somone that aparently knows wat he's talking about
