Default H23 vs F23
Im planning to do a turbo project on my car and was woundering which is better for turboing. I know you guys are going to say h23 but why? They are both 2.3 litres.

f23 is SOHC, h23 is DOHC w/o vtec. the vtec system on the f23 is nothing great.

the F23 is pretty strong too...if you have a F23 don't get rid of it...if you want to swap one...well then I'd say go for the H23

Well, it is from a longer stroke, and the fact that it is only 9.3:1CR makes it a lot better for turbo.

F23 VTEC is kinda like the VTEC they had in the Civic VX's it was there for fuel economy more than anything.
