aight heres the deal i got a 92 eg with singal cam vtec but thats not goodnuff so im thinking bout a H22 wat yall think or should go with a b siries

 

i think you should do it... i got a h22 swap in hatch and i love it...torque is the way to go... mine is actually a h2b turbo setup tho...

 

they say they take up alot of spece is there still enuff room to play with a turbo

 

 

I love my swap...the torque is impressive

Only thing I hate is how low the header is..

Then again, I am somewhat low on 15's

 

i got a picture of my engine bay that i post after i get off work tonight... there is enough room for a turbo if you make a few modifications with a hammer!

im going to the track this weeekend so hopefully ill be in the 11's...

 

ive got a h22a in a 94 civic coupe, from the looks of it there is plenty of room for a turbo setup.


anyways i went from a b16a with i/h/e to h22a with i/h/e, and all I have to say is i would never go back. the b16 was kinda fun to drive because of the gearing, but otherwise worthless. the h22 is soooooooo much better to drive around i get just as good as mpg, and its way quicker than the b16 was.

that and the h22 has a powerband that starts from like 3k rpm to redline while with the b16 the powerband consisted of 5500rpms to redline. i give for the h22

now just think how much better/faster it would be if you went h2b...

 

h22 ftw

 

h2k

 

o i know ive been wanting to ride in a h2b to see what its like. i spin going down the track through 1st and most of 2nd i couldn't imagine what it would be like with a b16a or b18c tranny strapped to it.

 

sounds like a nice setup.

OP: go to youtube and check out some videos of the h22 swaps and see for yourself. i would like to do one but they are a little more difficult of a swap compared to a b series.

 

it isnt nearly as bad as people make it out to be whatsoever. the worst part was the wiring harness, but if you know a lil bit about wiring then its not hard.

 

go for it you'll be smashing on b series

 

the only difference between a b series swap and a h swap is the size of the motor... i just got back from the track today and ended up running a 12.4. not what i was expecting but with a little more driver experience im sure i can hit 11's...

 

Depends on your plans really. If you intend on modding the motor later ie: boost or spray i would go with b series. unless you just wanna drop in swap with alot of power. Another option is H2b swap which makes around same hp and K series but is quite bit more expensive. all depends on your plans

 

i spent way less on my h2b swap then my friend did with his k24 swap... and i was making more power...

 

On what tires? How much power are you making?

 

ive heard H's are heavy as hell, so it makes ur handling a little worse, but for just dragging id go for the H

 

dude its like 40 pounds more than a b

 

on some 24's... (slicks)

ive only street tuned so far... gonna hit the dyno soon...so when i get #s ill post up...

 

lol... yeah, everyone thinks the motor is really that much more bigger or heavier... dont get me wrong, it is a little heavier but nothing drastic...

 

i think every one likes one or the other better not bc of power just smaller and seems to be alot easyer to find b- parts cheaper the h22 is alil heavie so up to you man

i would go with a b18c1

 

H SERIES FTW and thats coming from a guy who just sold his 450hp B series

 

if its a y8 or z6...something like that ide just build and boost the single....sorry but ive watched my boys rex smash a low boost h22 delsol

ive also always heard that the transmissions for the h series arent as strong as the other d`s and b`s and are more prone to catastofic transmission failure....that and way harder to find and much more expensive.

then again alot of h22 owners will tell you otherwise, if i were you ide simply continue my own research and determine your own opinions on each of the available swaps apposed to just taking everyones word for it.

you might find a combination that better suites your personal needs/goals an may even come up with something obscure that will turns heads way more than "another h22 civic" or just another boosted d or n/a b.

do whatcha will just have fun with it

edit: want an opinion...?

d16z6 built for boost and go for 400hp

or

f22 cast sleeves out the factory....another underestimated boost monster, also a cheap find.
