The Honda Civic Type R crushes the competition, and all for less money. At $35,000, you might not expect the Civic to be faster than the more expensive Ford Focus RS, VW Golf R, and even the limited edition Subaru WRX STI Type RA, but it is. Whether it's acceleration, track times, braking distances, useable cargo space, or efficiency, the Civic Type R puts down incredible numbers.
At the heart of the Type R is the K20C1 engine, a two-liter inline four-cylinder that's turbocharged packing 295 lb-ft of torque, and 306 horsepower. In this video we'll explore the numbers surrounding the Civic Type R, and deep dive into the engine to find out just what makes it so special.

NEW VIDEO EVERY WEDNESDAY!
what do you mean with that you just change the sparkpluggs after 100000miles? Do you kidding?
IMO 4 cylindercars sounds like trash and ruins the sports car experience. Part of the feel when driving a sports car is the sound. This 4 banger fails....
The chain drive is made of adamantium
Golf R 14.1. Can't be. Should be doin the same as Type R with a stick on the 1/4 mile?? I'm thnking anywayz.
Front wheel drive is a death trap. In the winter.
Twin turbo config would keep the torque curve much more consistent in the Accord. Bigger turbo would kick in when smaller one reaches its peak boost.
TypeR design is one of the best
you video made my mind into buying a Civic Type R and end result is, THANK YOU.
+Geoff Finnigan sounds like a plan! :)
+Agustin Cuenca If you are ever in Kelowna BC hit me up and maybe we can trade for 5 minutes!
+Geoff Finnigan I was also looking for an RS, but opted for the Honda, no regrets, although I haven't driven an RS yet, maybe if I do I'll change my mind
I was up in the air about this and the RS. The RS came with a set of mounted winters and mounted Comp 2's, it is AWD, and Ford gave me 0% Financing, after a test drive. Honda would not even let me test drive the car, it is FWD, and comes with one set of summers. Also the RS has the drift button.

This is the best EE video yet, and the best vid on the Type R and Accord engines as well! Very nicely polished and well-produced.
I will take 2
If they could lower the wing a little bit and get rid of those huge plastic "air vents" on the front and back (which I'm sure they're gonna do for all civics in a mid-cycle refresh) that would be a really good looking car. I still like the way it looks, just my two gripes...
Excellent review, does the Acura have the same engine/
It’s also the ugliest, important factor 😎
When did bunnyfufuu start making car videos
would like to see what the figures are in the wet...
yea but it's the ugliest car in that lineup by a mile
It’s basically a regular civic engine with roid rage
It's impressive that it's not impressive to be impressed by a Honda.
rs with inline 5 sounds sweet though. I heard dealerships jack up type r.
Great engine no doubt about that. The car looks ridiculous though. Pity.
Faster than a Golf R..lulz what am I missing!?
Ashneel P they always compare cars against a manual golf r, they never do comparisons against the dsg. We all know the dsg golf r destroys the type r, focus rs and the Sti.
MT posted 5.7 0-60 for the sti and the golf r. While posting the fastest recorded 0-60 time I have seen from a stock Type R. Seems off
Dude.. Where did you get that engine?
This is embarrassing man back in 2000 my gsr made 400hp stock turbo . B18c1. What's all this hype in 2019 ??? Fucken trash.
What's crazy is that each of those stickers for more than a non-premium package Mustang GT.
Direct injection, so won’t it have carbon buildup and cause problems down the line?
so the only drawback to the civic type R as appose to the others is if you reside in a state where it snows a lot. I am curious tho if the Type R engine is a direct swap in the accord.
Would this crate engine fit on a 2008 Honda Fit sport MT?
