Nope. You will be good to go just changing the tranny.

Have you changed anything else? How long has it been?
I wouldn't say it needed. but why not? I am also a Dyno ***** though........
At one point I was re-dynoing my car every season change! And it was worthwhile!

Im doing the tranny swap this weekend. The setup is the same when I had it dyno tuned in March. There is a huge difference in these two trannys. Problem is these "F"ers want 500 bucks to dyno tune.

Yeah! YOU HEARD IT FROM ME! on another post. I thought I recognized your foul stench! LOL! You have to believe me! The car is sick with the F22 trans. I do alot of highway driving. Euro R trannys are pussycats on the freeway. You cant downshift into 3rd! Its too short. I raced a cobra stang with both trannys. I WALKED it hard with the f22 trans. Cant say the same with the T2W4. I destroyed an EVO and an SRT4 with the f trans. The dude was pissed! He flipped me off! And its going to be sick with a RED TOP H22 bolted to it!

Can't say you're the only one I heard it from, I frequent h22squad......My foul stench?
Don't listen to me.....I am clueless.......
Are you running high11's-low12s?......I sure hope so. Nothing funnier than a 13sec H22 Civic.
So tell me, why are you posting in the Prelude forum instead of the Hybrid forum? did they laugh you out of there already or something?
