Search, my friend. Search.

By doing your own research, you will form opinions and logic reasoning on your own.

Don't leech off of other people's opinions on what you should do. That is lame.

if all you want is that little whistle everytime you shift..... go ahead and shove a turbine under its nose..... but if you want be all over the competition..... go with the swap.... and you dont have to get the biggest engine honda makes...... you should check out all the engines like a b16b, b18c, or ls/crvtech engines.....

I can get a h22 swap for 2600 which i dont think is bad....and h22 is faster then a b16b and b18c....but i love turbo which would be faster boosting my SOHC or swapping for the h22.....i think the only problem with swapping for the h22 would be traction.................

h22 and traction isn't really an issue. That is the driver's fault.

I have raced turbo sohc's and stock psi they keep up pretty well with me.

that is true but if you gonna be boostin' that H22 THEN you will have traction problems...

well if you show and go.. but go for now...

i say just get the H22 and get use to that motor ... then be show for a short while and then START BOOSTING!!!

well unless you on a budget..... are you?

why not do booth? the H22 can handle quite a bit of boost...if done correctly.

I can get the motor for 2200 and he said to swap it it would be about 400- 500 bucks..........I think i have made up my mind, im gonna go with the swap do some mods to the h22 then some looks then save to turbo it but i cant swap and turbo at the same time my budget wouldint allow that..............thanks for your help H-T members....
