Well, here is mine. This was a run down of a few parts over a long period of time. I have had my aluminum radiator for a while now, but I guess includes in the swap since a dual core radiator is recommended.

H22A Complete swap from HondaMotorsOnline - $2650 shipped
HASport Mount Kit from HondaMotorsOnline - $550
Timing Belt for 92-96 USDM Prelude VTEC (2.2L) - $39.99
Water Pump for 92-96 USDM Prelude VTEC (2.2L) - $34.99

Drivetrain
Driveshaftshop.com Stage 1 axles R&L side approx $169.99 ea.

NGK Spark Plugs for USDM 92-96 Prelude VTEC (2.2L) - approx. $10

Hoses
1992 Integra LS Upper Radiator Hose - approx. $5
1994 Del Sol VTEC lower radiator hose - approx. $5

C&R Import Racing aluminum radiator with SPAL fan for DOHC motors - $439.95 (317) 293-4100
Alternator Belt Part No. 25-060370 from NAPA Auto parts - $10

Running C&R Racing/Del Sol VTEC with FAL fan = (+/-)$4082.91

Of course, a lot of this stuff is not required, this is merely the things I have purchsed and installed over a period of time. Things that come into play is the HCP kit vs the HASport kit.

HTH.

I have installed it myself. No way I would pay someone else to do my Hybrid.

I would assume it would probably cost about $5000 to install it from a shop of some sort.

Here's mine (as you'll all probably hate me for )

JDM H22A compelte changeover swap w/LSD tranny - $0 (well, sold my JDM B20 swap w/GSR tranny change over and that cash went towards the H22 swap)
HCP mounts - Free "sponsorship" since my car was one of the first EG's to use them
Radiator - Already had from my turbo setup, but originally cost $80 brand new
Belts/pumps/fluids - $70
Axles - $45 each w/core.... used Integra axles and gave Preludes as cores
Slim fan - Free, used my AC codensor fan on the radiator... it worked fine when racing in 100 degree temps
Exhaust work - Free, but the guy who welded it at the shop sucks

Aftermarket crap......
Spoon chip - Free, since I made & sold them
2.5" exhaust - Paid $160 for it when I had my turbo setup
Hotshot headers - $400.... fawk dat price for the headers as I give them an 8 out of 10
Brakes - kept on replacing my rotors & pads every 45-60 days as I drove my car hard, and my pads would wear down the rotors faster than the pads would wear, causing a nice lip on the rotors..... always replaced, never turned and reused.

That's about all that I can think of for now. It helps when you have resources and extra parts/crap at your disposal, and know where and what to look for on misc small items that are needed.

I charge $900 to install the H22a, so figure that about average I think for install...Im sure some shops out there charge way more. H22a isnt cheap, but its badass.

No watter what stock gauge cluster you swap into your car that has a tach I wondering swear by the fact its accurate. From my experience with my EX cluster in my ek, I definatly know its not 100% accurate just by trial and error. I would look into getting some type of aftermarket tach for accuarcy.

I tried keeping it under $3200, but no. Definitly spend the extra buck for better parts and reliability. I had to learn the hard way, and payed much more and waited much longer to get the swap done.

We sell turnkey H22A swap for about $3600. That's installed, with the mount kit, axles, wiring, everything needed to make the H22 fit and run code free - with the EGR working properly.

Just drop the car off and pick it up a few days later with an H22 under the hood.

Well, I see I'm a little closer to the expensive side, but here's what I have so far:

(swap in progress!)

$3300 - H22A OBD1($2200) with LSD($300), Hasport Mounts($490) and shipping($300) from HMO
$875 - Apex WS exhaust, AEM fuel rail, AEM FPR, and AEM ITR CAI with shipping (enough acronyms for ya?
$370 - ACT HD clutch
$110 - Walbro 255 Fuel pump
$400 - DSS Stage 1 axles
------------------------------------------
$5055

I know some of that stuff isn't neccessary, but it's for the future. I'm still going to need more like timing belt, etc...

And no the car will never be done!!

Oh Lord. Here I go.

Euro R H22 - $4200 shipped
PlaceRacing mounts - $650
PlaceRacing Harness conversion+pigtail - $600
PlaceRacing axles - $179 each
modification of INCORRECT PR mounts - roughly $300 (includes custom 3g/4g prelude hybrid shift box)
p30 ecu - $80
hondata s200+ecu socket - $350
new radiator - $370
miscellaneous hoses, belts, etc - $300
other miscellaneous restoration/rebuilds - almost $4000 (although not swap related)

So that puts me at almost $12 grand.

Sucks when you're working with the least popular handa made
