2025 Acura Integra Type S

K20C

2.0L Turbo I4

This is one of the most charismatic turbo fours on sale, delivering a flat, eager shove to a high redline with crackling overrun pops in Sport+ and a hard-edged Honda VTEC bark that rewards a manual gearbox.

It is the K-series turbo engine from the Honda Civic Type R, the modern heir to legendary naturally aspirated Type R units like the B16B and K20A, hand-finished at Honda's Anna, Ohio engine plant.

• In the Integra Type S it is catalogued as K20C8 rather than the Civic's K20C1, differing mainly in mounting points despite being essentially the same engine.
• A revised high-flow exhaust gives the Integra Type S the highest horsepower rating ever for a Honda four-cylinder in North America, edging out the Civic Type R.
• It is built in the United States, not Japan, alongside the Type R it shares a powertrain with.
