I just finished my H22 swap last week in my 5G hatch.I havent been to the track yet,but it's probally Low 13's on street tires..Handling is not that big of an issue,As long as you upgrade your suspension to adjustable shocks with a coilover setup with stiffer spring rates..I wouldnt recommend this swap if you plan to autocross,It handles Good but is more of a Drag engine IMO..Here is a list of my current setup...
AEM CAI,Dc 4-2-1 header.2.5" apex Exhaust,2.5" test pipe,Aem fuel reg,walbro fuel pump,ACT clutch,Fluidyne radiator,Fal fan,And a V-AFC..
So far thats all i have,Considering i dont have to many mods.It's damm fast for what i have!!!I also stripped the interior slightly,,
Good luck!

I had a B18C5 in my car, and I would never go back to it since i had my H22 put in. Handling is no where as bad as all the hype is! It is noticeable, but with the suspension upgraded you can keep with B-Series swapped Hatches in the corners!
I would say definitely mid 13's. My buddy runs 12.80's. He also agrees that this swap does a mid 13 on street tires.
