That's what it looks like it's coming to. At least 4-5 models current already share this motor.

my money's on the h22 was faster, even with the torque curve of the k20, the mere fact that the h22 puts out 15-20 more ft-lbs of torque is enough to show that it will dog.

i'd compare this to putting a b16 in place for a b18

when the K series comes down in price, it will be worth it to swap. for now the H, and B series are still the better swaps for your money.

i personally think the k-series should stay in the global platforms it came in.
