Every great build starts somewhere.

This EK Civic rolled into our workshop fresh out of the paint shop, ready for us to finish the build! Our customer was buying and collecting parts for his K-Swap over the past few years and has trusted us to complete the process for him after an initial consultation discussing his vision for the car and planning how he wants us to build it.

Over the coming few months, we’ll be transforming this car into a car capable of winning car show events and on track, applying everything we’ve learned through the years of building and racing Hondas. Every component was carefully selected, every detail considered and every stage documented.

Everything you see on this build can be purchased on our website or specially ordered for you if it’s not available, simply enquire through our DMs or give us a call, we’re here to help! We only supply and use quality parts from companies we trust!

Stay tuned as we bring this EK to life and turn it into something special!

It’s late nights in the workshop, attention to detail, and building cars that reflect who we are.

Three builds. Three personalities. One obsession with performance.

Not every workshop wants to deal with wiring gremlins on an engine swapped Honda that’s where we come in.

This EG K-Swap was towed all the way from South Australia to Elusive Racing chasing a proper solution.

After diagnosing and fixing multiple wiring issues, we finished the car off with a full tune to make sure it performs exactly how a K-Series swapped Honda should.

From troubleshooting to tuning, we’re here to make your build reliable, responsive, and ready to enjoy. 🔧⚡️

At Elusive Racing, we take pride in ensuring every build is completed to the highest standard.

This DC5 came to us after a K24 swap, requiring the final stages to be completed properly for reliable performance and drivability. We fitted the correct headers to suit the K24 platform in the DC5, resolved wiring issues, carried out a wheel alignment, and completed a full tune to bring everything together.

The result is a clean, reliable setup that performs as it should, both on the street and under load.

Whether it’s a full conversion, troubleshooting, or final tuning, we focus on delivering quality workmanship and dependable results.

Turbo sizing isn’t just about making power — it’s about how and where that power is delivered.

On our Elusive Racing DC2R Time Attack car, every component is chosen with purpose. We’ve leaned into a twin scroll turbo setup to maximise response without sacrificing top-end — exactly what you need when every corner exit and straight matters.

By properly managing exhaust flow through the turbine, we’re able to:
• Improve response out of corners
• Reduce back pressure at high RPM
• Broaden the usable powerband

That’s the difference between a fast car… and a competitive one.

This is what helped us put it together when it counted — P1 in Clubsprint at WTAC 2018 with a 1:38.7 🏆

Real engineering. Real results.

Turbo sizing is always a balancing act between choosing a turbo that offers great response or one that offers great power at high rpm. While the compressor side of the turbo is important, it’s the turbine side that drives the compressor and if we choose a small turbine wheel we end up with great response but high exhaust back pressure which strangles top end performance. If we choose a larger turbine wheel we reduce exhaust pressure and increase exhaust flow, but also reduce the energy available to drive the compressor wheel which hurts response and increases lag.

It’s certainly not a new technology, but twin scroll turbine housings are one way where we can get the best of both worlds. By taking advantage of the firing order of the engine (the order in which the exhaust gas exits the cylinders), and delivering the exhaust gas in an optimised way to the two individual scrolls of the turbine housing, we can reduce exhaust back pressure without sacrificing response. Of course there’s limits to this and if you think that you can fit a twin scroll EFR 9180 to your 2 litre 4 cylinder and have full boost by 2500 rpm you’re going to be very disappointed. On an application like Time Attack however, a twin scroll turbocharger can offer a wider power band and better response without choking high rpm performance. The downside however is that the exhaust manifold and wastegate integration become more complex with this style of turbo.
