what year is your car?

Yes, f22b2 is non vtec.

How much power do you want?, for instance if you want an extra 200hp you could be looking at 5 grand +/-.

how much you trying to spend. i had a f22b1. your really not gonna be making significant gains unless you boost and tune. you could do an h22 swap. or if you wanna stick with your engine. maybe a f23 intake manifold and some headers.

you could also upgrade the headlights with a retrofit. all depends on how much you got to spend and where ya wanna spend it

Shiiit, for 5 grand you can boost or do a swap.

Although you aren't experienced in the field of turbocharging your car that 5 grand MAY end up being 7 grand.

If you want to boost start reading and READING and keep on READING!

lulz, I hope you get my point.

I like this. Cause if you have to ask how to boost. Your no where near ready to jump into it. Going in blind on a boost build will give you nothing but problems and end you up with a blown motor. Do LOTS and LOTS of research.

it uses the same tb and fuel rail. only thing that changes is the iac and some hose routing. there are plenty of threads that go over this mod.
