does not having it wired up in some way affect fuel economy?

 

Better change that avatar to bottomed out H22A inside if you plan on using 2.3" drop springs!!! I would take the suspension just as seriously as you will the swap.

 

bump for h22 powwa

 

Will integra springs work on an eg??

 

Like I said, I probably will not get these 2.3" springs but, what other ones are good to use and will they take a new camber kit?

 

I've never hit my header or oilpan. I'm not sure how much my drop is since they're coilovers, but since my suspensions so stiff that I don't have a problem with hitting bottom. Plus roads down here are pretty nice as well so I guess that helps out.

 

i got another ? how hard is it to keep power steering and ac when you swap the h22 in. i would want both because its gonna be a daily driven car until i can get another one. thanks

 

I believe their is someone here on HT that makes a bracket to keep power steering.

I'm thinking about this swap myself but I've been told h22s burn oil and aren't good for turbo set up, this true?

 

My local tuner shop charges 800 for a B series swap, how much am I lookin at for the H?

Thanks!

 

 

Man do it yourself, it is not that hard and there are enough posts on here that oyu should be able to do it no problem! Hit me up if you have any questions, also Poison is a very good reference!

 

Ive run my car till it sputtered and then filled the tank. 10.5 gallons.

 

When I had my 2000 civic HB the fuel tank held 11.9 gallons. I was always running it extremely low.

 

Wanna fight?

 

wanna bigger gas tank?

 

mine holds like 12-13 gallons. BTW how much boost can a stock h22 handle without hurting it??

 

hrmmm maybe i got stiffed.

or maybe it was a drug repo and they just told me it was new.

*goes to check tank for drugs*

 

haha possibly, mine was drug repo free i'd have that checked out

 

what model do you have. did the different models come with different size tanks or did you just get a crazy small one

 

TRy this.....

I dunno if some of you read the eg+civic forum, but this is a link to my experience. I believe that mere intimidation scares people away from this swap........well you read.

H22a powered civic gets a from me

 

I believe the 6th gen civic's have 11.9 gal and 5th gen vx and cx models had 10.0 gal tanks.

 

The biggest downside is the fact that there is no kit available for swaps into 1988-1991 cars. If this is what you are swapping into, you MUST cut and weld.

 

plus efs have the worst weight distribution
and an h22 can hold psi just like any other motor
7 with a crap fmu, and over that with hondata and what not

its all a myth (this motor cant hold boost blah blah)
i see d-series holding 10-12 psi with good fuel management

 

How about when you have to change the alternator belt isn't that going to cause some problems?

 

I have not had probs with the alternator belt at all.. I have had it off probably 5-6 times since the install. Not really an issue.
