i was wondering what kinda fuel economy those of you with h22 swped hatch's are getting? i currently have a 5th gen preude with the h22 and i average around 25mpg and a little higher like 27-28mpg on the highway. i've heard many diffrent answers to the mpg question with the h22 swaps in hatches from 40mpg to 20mpg. i'm just looking into something a little better on gas and a little lighter and quicker.

was whats your mpg and whats in your setup?

i had a jdm h22 in a 92 hatch, and i was getting around 17-19 miles a gallon. i had a valve springs, retainers, i/h/e, jun flywheel, 255 pump, tuned on s200. pulled so hard. damn i miss that car.

 

what about highway mpg? anybody else?

That's it? wow....the EPA estimate for the H22A1 in the prelude was 22/27 and that's in a much heavier car than a hatch. As long as you're easy on them I've seen 30+ mpg in a properly tuned car. Gearing has a little bit to do with it as well.

I was thinking the same thing. Thats a little strange man.

 

I'm looking at buying a h22 swapped EG hatch and I'm wondering this same question. I'm buying the car for a good gas mileage DD and I want to at least get 25-29mpg.

I would really like to see some more people say what they get with there h22 EG. After all it has been 3 years.

 

My old blacktop H22 in my 92, tuned, lightened, got 31 mpg with an F22 trans. And it ripped on the interstate.

 

I was getting 24 city 29 highway in my 93 hatch and all stock h22 besides hondata. and that's without going a full tank without playing around with people lol... I'm in the process of building it up now! And was wondering if anyones running crower stage 3 cams and all the head work to go with it lol don't feel like typing all the stuff. Also running 52mm itbs and 12.5:1 to 13:1 compression. Gna be pump gas. Does anyone have a clue on what my hp should be around and mpg. I'm aiming for 240whp?
