it all depends on how much work you want to do also.....the H22 is going to be more work to install but will be worth it in the end, and the LS is just a basic drop-in swap.....its all about time, money and effort....be realistic with yourself though....good luck....

there was a guy on here that recently showed clips of his h22 civic doin an autox. i'm sure its not the same as a c5 in an hatch, but if you up the suspension it'll perform well.

you can get either setup to run 13's. You can get either setup to run 12's. You can get either setup to run 11's.

How thick is your wallet?

Really, your questions are too vague.

if you have the cash and want to wow people when you pop up your hood go h22 turbo...either setup will set you back alot of money. damn i wished i had cash to turbo my car

Alright you guys, listen you cant' compare an h22 to an ls. Ls equals non-vtec, h22 equals vtec. do you want it or not. thats one question. Next, h22 costs a little more and requires a little more work, I should know i've done three seperate ones ( and pulled out and re-installed to many to count) including my own. requires custom wire harness mount kit etc.. H22 is definately worth it. right now i'm running 13's w/ i/h/e, fuel rail, fp, and fpr. and for you people that don't know waht your talking about the car doesn't even know the motor is there, meaning its not any harder to turn. I'm going to autox this year so i'll let ya know how that goes. Good luck w/ your descision.
