That"s More Like It: Tuner Powers up Honda CR-Z with K20 i-VTEC Engine Swap


If there"s one major complaint to be had with the Honda CR-Z, it"s the lack of power. Florida-based tuning firm LHT Performance decided to address this problem by replacing the CR-Z"s standard hybrid powerplant with a far more potent 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit from Honda"s own K20 series. This is not the first time that LHT Performance has made the switch on a Honda hybrid as the tuner previously pulled a similar stunt with the Insight. Unfortunately the company has not released any specific details on the K20 engine swap, but it did not that "everything works 100%". Watch a static video of the car after the break.
