Default 97 Accord F22B >>> flywheel weight, Pulleys, Cam gear <<<

Hey members, how you guys doing?

I got 3 questions in one post, so here they are:

1) What is the difference between the flywheels of 8 pounds and 12 pounds? Does the lighter one make rpms drop quicker than the 12lb one?

2)I've got some OBX "underdrive pulleys" for my car, one for the PS and the other for the ALT. The box is missing one belt, and so.... I would like to know if I can install them and use the OEM size belts that I have right now.

3) I've also got an AEM cam gear, and should be installed soon.... ....and was wondering if the cam gear alone could increase horsepower even if set at 0 degrees?


I plan on reaching 200HP to the crank... somehow..... I've got so far, I/H/E, MSD ignition and plan getting: 2.25 downpipe, flowmaster high flow cat, Aluminum stock diameter crank pulley, aluminum flywheel, stage 2 clutch.... ....is it possible for me to get 200hp out of these mods????
Thanks for any posts and opinions in advance! Thank ya'll

hmm to answer some of your questions.

1.If you are going from stock flywheel to either the 12 or 8 lbs then it will def. rev quicker and rpm drop quicker, but i dont think there is a noticable difference.

2.I dont think you can use the OEM belt(its either to big or small cant remember).

3.Power will not go up by just installing the cam gear and have it set at 0.

And last but not least, without going boost i dont think there is a way to get 200hp out of the f22 unless you get some crazy custom work done, but with those mods no.

. Yes the rpms will quicker and drop quicker but you will also notice a difference. Especially since honda's have low torque an 8lb flywheel will make the car rev quicker making it feel like your car is faster although a dyno would only be able to proce that. I have an 8lb fidanza flywheel and it works great. A little bit on the light side if your not quick at shifting because the rpms drop pretty quick. Although it may not feel too different you will have a power increase.
