my euro-r redlines at round 7400-7600 depending which gear you are in.

but looking at my dynosheet the power reached it's peak at 7600rpm and dropped a tiny bit at 7800rpm.

Good choice of engine btw

I have to disagree. It is a great engine (especially if your car came with it from the factory, as I suspect yours did since you're in New Zealand) but it is ridiculously expensive compared to the JDM H22. Why would you spend $3200-4000 when you can get an H22 for $2K??? You'd be well on your way to a turbo setup with the cash saved buying a JDM H

It shouldn't depend on what gear you're in...a redline is a redline...read your cluster. Where does the red start? That's your redline.

well, if it's anything like the last USDM prelude (98+), the tach is a little slow in keeping up with the actual rpms, which means you could hit the rev limiter at different readings from the tach. that could be reason for the perceived changing redline.

The tach is not at all accurate and does not depict redline. The ECU has the redline programmed into it...the tachs on hondas are notorious for being inaccurate. So, in essence, the redline never changes...you just think it does.

I would try to avoid hitting the rev limiter. That's not very wise.

correct me if im wrong, but i believe it redlines at 7800 rpms. im not 100% sure tho. buy a VAFC and i gurantee you that redline doesnt change rpms in any gear.

i chose the euro r swap just for the fact that i know what it is and there are not that many out there that i know of. i thought about either putting a turbo on my f23 or getting a f20b but decided not to.

my car as sits is a 99 4door auto and this swap converts to 5sp, lsd, mounts, ecu, cables, motor, trans, and a couple other peices which is still more than what i would get from buying a h22 so it does balance cost to a degree

that engine is a bit overrated here in the states IMO...h22 is cheaper, makes more power, has greater displacement, has ALOT more aftermarket support (especially state side).....even the seller on that EBAY thing is retarded....the euro-r has the h22, not f20

if you wanna be cool and JDM, yet you want to have power, just pick up an f22b and boost it....their cheap as hell

im not trying to build a fast car i just want it to be decent. how is a f22b a big jdm motor when the h22 euro r motor is rare and makes more then any other stock honda motor with exections to the k series (220hp and 163 tq) this is a true R motor setup and f20b is 200hp and 153tq. the reason im getting this is not to build for serious power to for what is supposed to be in my car. the only other mods to it will proboly be msd

Not to mention you're spending that much for an automatic, screw that!

actually, when you get a complete h22a swap from a reputable online source, youll get EVERYTHING for around 2.5k.....honestly dude, your wasting your money....just get an h22a w/ lsd, throw on the euro-r ITM, jun cams, bolt ons, and your making as much power as teh euro r.....

just to clear things

SiR-T = manual only = 200hp
SiR = auto only = 180hp

if it's a SiR-T auto then it's not a SiR-T.

Ido agree with getting cheaper h22a with LSD and then dumping parts into it.

I used the euro-r h22a because I had a wrecked euro-r.

teh redline is a mark on the tach gauge, and it will occur usually about 100-200 rpm short of the REVLIMIT.
