take it to the track and find out.

Location, altitude, track conditions, weather, driver ability. We have no way to guess what your times will be.

put it in first that would be a start. second would be to get a RMF SMSP or ANR header with complete exhaust system. Get cams, intake, get it tuned. You should hit high 13's stock on a good driver and a good track. Just have fun with just having that motor I swear I do and I love the gobs of massive torque and insane powerband. Just enjoy it and keep your mouth and hood shut so thieves dont hear about it.

what kinda of suspension do u have on ur car with ur h22 cause thats a big motor in there and it sits low its gonna suck when u hit the bottom of ur header on a speed bump or something... but yea low 14's is probably what u should expect... do u a short ram intake and nice catback system apexi ws2, rsr, greedy sp2... something quiet

do you think a nitrous kit is a good idea to put on it?

dont expect high 13s . a friend put one into his cx and the best both me and him could get out of it was 14.01 @ 100 , thats with a 2.0 60' . h22's are overrated , save the money and time and get something else like a boosted ls . right now , said friend traded his jdm h22 for a gsr and has been happy ever since

if you hit 14.01

theres a good chance he can get into 13.99

H22A civic's are badass. ive driven many and they are very very fun to drive. the "Big block" honda engines have gobs of low and mid range torque.


i ran 13.97 @ 98 in my friends heavy Civic EX Coupe (174whp h22a)

i ran 13.5 in my B18C hatch, and my bro's H22A hatch was just as fast as my car, but he never ran it at the track. we would be neck and neck from 0-100

i think if u can drive, got decent tires and a good engine u should hit a high 13 to low 14 in stock form.
