Default Having hard time weighing odds...

Ive been racking my brain day in and day out on deciding what motor i wanna put in my 95 civic ex coupe... Im really leaning toward a JDM H22a Swap Over Ls turbo setup... Im not wanting anyone to tell me what to do im just wanting to advice on what to do.. Because ive had 4 turbo setups in a Integra but ive never had a h22 before and figured it would be something new... just wanting some light with some advice........

d15b8 would be the best choice *rolls eyes* at more wasted bandwidth.

Is money an issue?

What would you be using the motor for? Anything special or just a daily driver wit a bit of pep?

If you're familiar with Forced Induction which from your previous vehicles i assume you are. I'd always love the LS-T but there's really nothing negative for me to say about the H22a.

I'd throw the H22A in there if you wanna change things up a bit. And if in the future you have a craving for boost again...you can always boost the H22 with great results.

Good luck to you!

Throw a valve cover breather on that and it could be a street terror. Don't be arrogant because you have your own mind, hahaha. Some people cant think for themselves.

We are the minority, Schard. Unfortunately.

Looking @ your sig I'd assume you already made up your mind. Go with your instincts so you don't regret something down the road.

honestly, is it really that hard to figure out what you want if money isnt an issue???

K20 if youre a baller, H22 (or similar) if youre a torque junky, B if you want the bling, and D if you got shallow pockets or just dont care to expand.

what is this thread really about, just letting everyone know you are swapping your motor, or what???

Sometimes brutal honesty is the way to go.

Schardbody for moderator!

And im kinda serious with that, Schard. I see you on here ALL the time, and you obviously know you're stuff as you're usually dead on with peoples issues. Any reason on why you didn't nominate yourself? When I saw the thread originally, Arch and yourself came into my mind as far as people that are here often, with brutal honesty and overall knowledge.
