im going f20b dual cam european.. my question is what is the difference in both of the trannys.. its going to be put in a 88-91 civic hatch daliy driver.. they both cost about the same.. so please help....

 

what would you like, better gas mileage, or better performance? The F22 will be longer geared, better for mileage, the H22, or H23 will be better for performance with the shorter ratios.

 

He said f20b motor. Which is the F-series with Vtec. It has the same HP but less toruqe, go with the h22 tranny

Your h23 tranny has longer gears
the h22 has shorter gears

 

alright i got an f22 tranny for cheap cause i want to drive my car now... but i guess i will save up and get an h22.. but im going all motor.. daliy driver.. is that a difference

 

I think that depends on the application doesn't it? If you wanna do drags and quarter miles than the h series trannies would get you to the finish line faster because of shorter gearing.

From what I've understood from reading, F series have longer gears so would probably take longer to get up to max speed but I guess (and have no idea about this) its max speed would be higher than???

 

yeah the f22 would allow you to reach a higher top speed. but who drives their ludes over 130 mph anyway?

i say if you really need the extra mpg, go with the f22 or h23 tranny, if you want a little better performance get the h22 trans. make sure you know what you want so you dont have to switch later

 

yeah i have an f22 at the moment that i havent dropped in my ride i just wanted to see what was better.. so the h23 is the same as a f22?????????

 

no. the h23 has different gearing than transmissions from f22 engines...the m2s4 trans from the h23 is closer to the h22 offerings than the f22 trannies.

 

so h23 is better than an f22.. i got it cheap so i can drive it by my birthday... so which would be better cost wise.. h23 or f22 or h22.. but porformance is a must.. daliy driver all motor...

 

Also, it takes a good bit of torque to hit those top speeds so those longer gears won't mean much either. (Just some more input).
