the type s will be a direct bolt on. I believe the type s is obd 2 and is compatible to your tranny also. correct me if I am wrong though. anyways, good luck.

the H22 from a genuine type-S is the only viable upgrade; & what an upgrade it is 
but you'll be getting it with a transmission anyway.
but that is the only other h series that will bolt up and allow you to retain your ATTS
u could always rebuild your engine with type-s parts tho, for a fraction of the cost

well i jumped my car to obd-1 so i lost my atts option anyway lol so if i was to get a complete h22a swap would the new motor trans and axles and eveything bolt directly into the car with out any modification ??

well a type S engine has about 220 hp vs. 200 on h22a4's, but that includes pistons and cams (I am not pos if there is anything else really). So you'll probably see a few more whp since you are running 11:1 compression instead of 10:1 now.

Over time its looking more and more like the H22A4's are inferior to H22A1's and 1st gen H22A's......
I feel like alot more people have had bearing problems with newer H's...
Just sharing something I have been thinking about for years.....
