Looks like a 2.0 .
Re: Verify Engine Type by slimmoney(m): 3:06pm On Jul 06, 2022
that is honda k24 with 2.4l engine, a particular plastic is supposed to cover that marked intake manifold area but it has been removed.

Although I acknowledge that the person you quoted is not a serious person I don’t think he’s 100% wrong.

There are K20 & K24 engines from Honda and they look 90% alike. The only way to know for sure is to look at the engine number.

The above engine might actually be a 2.0

that is not a k20 engine, 2008 Si civic use k20 engine and it's different from this, below is k20 engine, check out the intake manifolds its quite different.

Dimensions of the K20A and K24A’s top and bottom block (skeleton) are similar even down to their mounting points. The only major differences are found in their internals.

The K20A’s Cylinder head or Intake manifolds can be swapped out and exchanged with the K24A’s because of the drive by wire or cable throttle body and it will work. The only thing to be changed is the brainbox.

People do this type conversion at oyingbo especially after an engine has kpafuka and the owner wants another one but with a lower fuel consumption wink

That’s when you’d start hearing of accords using civic engines. Plus there are actually 2.0l Honda Accords driving around too from the 2005 - 2011 production years. Those types of accords are the ones originally built for the Asian market and a way of noticing them is that they have wider spaces for installing their rear plate numbers. These were done because Asian countries have wider/longer rectangular plate number designs just like Nigeria used in the old days. The Asian specs badges and trims are usually i-vtec VTI-L (for their base trim) or i-vtec VTI-E (for their executive trim) and i-vtec VTI-S for their sport trim while the American specs have the LX, EX or S trims.

The 2.0l’s EOD’s have a ‘V’ shaped booth & taillights arrangement/design while the DC’s have their reverse lights spaced further apart. Even the Evil Spirits have their own distinct differences from their behind as well if you observe them closely.

See a few examples below, can you differentiate the USDM accords from the ADM ones?

And it is also true that the K20A used in these ADM (Asia or Australia) are usually right hand drive and must be converted before using in Nigeria legally.

Their engines are also the type tuned for more aggressive VTEC engagement thereby giving them almost similar power to their bigger K24A counterparts. You can say that they carry the Civic SI engines.

Re: Verify Engine Type by slimmoney(m): 5:05pm On Jul 08, 2022
i get ur points nd explanations, but i doubt if there is any 2008 evil spirits with 2.0l k20 engines, all the 2008 accord with 2.0l badges i have seen mostly comes with tuned up R series engine, those car's were mostly sold brand new in Nigeria, attached is their engine

Yes you’re right. The Evil Spirits didn’t come with the K Series 2.0L version.

But I personally love the styling and features found in the ADM accords over the USDM ones. They usually have more features and options plus look a lot better too.
