F22 VTEC in a 99 EK?
Sup guys,
I'm just wondering if it's possible to put a F22 VTEC from a Honda Accord into my EK. I am interested in the F22 because I do not want to spend 3 grand for the EM1 B16A2 3rd gen from the Si, and have read from many that the F22 responds very well to bolt ons. (one example would be the current Project Car issue [March/April] which features an F22 and it gained almost 12 WHP from a CAI and exhaust alone!!!)
How difficult would this be? Is in even worth it? Keep in mind I would like to do something different!!
Any input would be awesome,
Thanks

Yes, PM the user Bense, he has done this before. Its similiar to an H-series swap, from what i understand.
Theres Pro's and con's to this swap.
Pro's are that its cheap to have cause its SOHC and you got some low end torque to make use of. The bad is that its still a SOHC, so theres not allot of power in the high end.
