Ok so Im doing a tranny swap...I have a 1994 Honda Accord Ex...right now its an auto and im going to a 5 speed...also in late May im doing an H22 Swap...the shop that im getting it done at tells me that I need to go with the Accord Tranny because the gears are better...but they say whenever I boost my H22 in the late summer The F22 tranny will not be able to handle it and will break...so I was just seeing what your alls thoughts would be on this...also how hard is it to replace my stock OEM brake lines with steel braided brake lines? can I do it myself or should I leave it to the pros?

 

First off Red SEARCH feature in the upper right hand corner is your best friend.

The shop that told you the Accord tranny won't work is full of BS if you read up on the recommendations from many of the guys on this board they recommend the Accord tranny when boosting and seem to have no problems.

 

if the accord tranny is better then why are you saving up for an h22 tranny?...i mean im getting both trannies i just didnt know what to do...im getting the accord tranny for starters..and when I boost im putting the h22 one on...cuz i have the front clip of a prelude...so i have both trannies i just didnt know which one to use

 

that shop doesnt know **** from what your telling us. w/ your h22 swap you can use the h22 tranny, and it is recommended you do go with the h22 tranny. the f22 has longer gears, not well suited for the h22. and the bit about f22 tranny breaking under boost and the h22 tranny not is a crock of **** as well.

 

I am saving up for the H22 tranny because I don't want to boost. You said you want to go FI, from what I have read on this board most people recommend the F22 tranny because of the taller gears it works better w/FI. Don't ask me about paticulars becuase I don't know more than that.
