i dont think going turbo on a H duece, is a good idea, they have high compression, so ionno you can try it but i think you gonna blow your engine, unless you can lower the compression, then i think you can go turbo on an H, if you ever do that post pics and some vids of that monster

Turboing an H22 without getting sleeves and forged internals = you just threw away 7 grand.

not really....if you were only boosting to 280-300whp.

if you are going boost you should have your f seires built and throw an h23/h22 head on it to gain the tuning abilities of the dohc

how is he not going to blow his motor if hes planningon gaining 100HP to the wheels on a stock H22...thats like running 15psi or maybe more...if you do turbo i wouldnt push like 8psi..thatd give you a nice boost to..just get it tuned properly and you should be fine but like many said they are a high compression motor and to turbo it properly and to be able to run higher boost you have to sleeve it so you can run forged pistons and such

turbo h22's are good for 300whp...that is 140-150hp more than a stock h22....that is safe and can be done with 9lbs of boost with a properlysized turbo. 280hp is a very safe goal.

search for some of these cars there was one on here making 530whp on the stock block until it dropped a valve. it ran for 8 months, and at the track. it took that hp for a decent amount of time...not nearly long enough for a dd but it is hard telling how long it would have lasted until the bottom end failed

^^^this is true. h22's can be safely boosted with a conservative tune with stock internals to 275-300. Anymore than that you might want to look at re-sleeving your block and lowering the compression. As for turob kits there is a drag kit on Ebay for sale, other than that I would suggest buying the pieces seperately

This thread has way too much misinformation...

Read the Prelude FAQs like he said /\/\ for all the info you need:

you are incorrect....please before you go stating info on here make sure you know what you are talking about. please read the build thread again....because it is not a simple bolt on...there is modification needed

The biggest PITA is the water pipe.

If he used the F22 headgasket and did not plug up the coolant drain holes thats the culprit.

lol well to make that 275-300whp goal on a stock h22 you better have a damn good tuner if you are only gunna turn 8psi, trust me i was runnin a boosted h22 until a couple of days ago. i fried the rings and ring glands, get a good tune and you will be fine, i made alot of power but it wasnt safe....goodluck with the build
