not a jdm motor. the F22A is a JDM motor but the F22A6 is not. a 92 w/ 115k miles aint too bad but since you didnt do the driving of those miles you cant trust it. get a JDM F22B dohc swap like me.

Keep in mind that the F22a6's head flows are alot better than F22A1, & F22B2 non vtec. I saw somewhere that the crank hp was at 140 on the a6. Turbo it and You'd be str8 up menace.

The F22A6 is pretty much the best F series SOHC platform to start from for ether forced induction or All motor. Due to the flow characteristics of the head it makes it a good start for all motor. Then with the 8.8:1 CR and iron sleeves it's a good place to start for a mild boost setup.

IMO I would keep the A6 and build on it. Make sure you have a goal in mind before you start ripping and tearing. What your going to use the car for is the fist thing you want to consider. Then whether or not you choose to go forced induction or All motor. Beside that you should have a budget and make a list of what costs will be incurred for each part you want to add.

Alright well i want to boost this car. i was planning on putting a h22 in it but if it will be just as efficient to use the a6 then ill go with that. should i bore it or leave it the way it is and get different pistons and rods. also does anyone have a site where i can get cam shaft for this engine? also other engine internals?

Bisimoto Engineering

If you want to go big. You could sleeve the block and go with a set of 88mm forged pistons. Everything your looking for is on that site.
