alright so im gettin away from the dsm scene . . . $h!t breaks to much So i decided i want to drive a honda but i wanna drive somethin that (well at least around here) u dont see much of i want to take a fifth gen wagon and put a k20a in it but im not really sure of a few things like what axles to use everyone tells me to just put a h22a in but i dont want to deal with all that lol so if anyone knows what all i need to put the k20 in the wagon id really appreciate the help

 

So you don't want to deal with a ridiculously easy swap (h22) and instead want to do a swap that maybe 2 people have done?

I think you need to do some searching sir.

 

lol not really that i dont want to deal with it but idk i want to do something different and i really like the k20 motor and much later on i would like to turbo the car im ready to do whatever it takes i just need help lol

 

Hasport created one and makes mounts for it. I believe they also sell a wiring harness for it.

AC lines and PS lines must be custom.

There's a article about it in either SuperStreet or HondaTuning about it which details the parts. I do not believe there is an FAQ set up for it here or other Accord forums yet.

 

alright so lets say i did go the h22 route for now to save money and headaches (you were right i did some reading up on it a little more) what would you suggest for building a strong na motor that sometime later would be turbo-ed im really not that familiar with anything but the b18c and the b18 ls swaps thats really all ive done work on except for my buddies turbo fg si so the h and k motors are new to me

 

If you get yourself a 10:1 H22A4 you will have a decent N/A car with little to no trouble boosting it later on down the road. You shouldn't start with a purpose built N/A engine (11.5-13:1 cr) if you have goals of boosting it in the future. Stick with the stock H22A4 (10:1 cr) and you can boost it later on down the road with a proper turbo setup and tune.

Or you could swap in an H22 and keep the old SOHC F22B2 that comes with the wagon. Build the F for boost while your enjoying the N/A H22A. Then swap the boosted F22 in when it's completed or you get board of the H. Sell the H 2 some kid for the same price you spent and your not out any money. That would be another way to have a good reliable N/A car and go boost later.

 

sounds good thanks for bein helpful and not a$$ holes lol so what numbers come from boosted f22's or do you have a link to see a decenly built one all i kno is 4g63 when it comes to boosted motors but i see alot of boosted hondas around here wit less problems and more power

 

here's some wagon build in progress,
