yes an h22 ecu will work...and well pretty much any F/H series tranny will work also...but try to get an h22 tranny because of the shorter gears

Get the car tuned, if you don't have the ECU that's for that motor. Sure, the H22 ECU will work, but I'd never use it for an F20.

I'd personally convert the motor to OBD1 and run Hondata
