Default H22 swap...

I plan on putting a H22 engine in my 95 Accord lx, just a few questions: does the year on the H22 matter for the swap?? And I also plan on turboin it later so whats the most powerful turbo that will fit in the engine bay??

95 or later motor. As far as the turbo goes, the H22 is not the best engine for forced induction. If you plan on a turbo set up, stick with your f22. Good luck

shouldnt it be 95 or earlier model motor, because 96+ is OBD-II

Where does anyone say it's not the best for forced induction? Stock for stock? Sure the F22 is better, iron sleeved, lower compression, etc. But when you're making real power the H has much more support. Just has to be built.

95 and later?

Where'd that come from? 92-95 is usually the range for OBD1 JDM H22's that people swap in. 96+ H22 isn't a HUGE issue, you can downconvert to OBDII for tuning and what not. But is certainly not mandatory.
