What would be the easiest way to make my f23 dohc ? or would it be easier swapping and h22?

 

Where u live I have an h22 id trade

 

moncton new brunswick,why do you want an f23

 

Go H22. Easy swap and has tons of aftermarket support.

 

Boost your F23 and forget about the overpriced/overrated H22. A boosted F23 would be so much more fun.

There are actually a few F23 build threads with a few cheap parts swaps making 190whp 165 tq. That's with OEM K20 pistons an aftermarket cam and a tune. And this particular build could still be touched up a wee bit too. Probably push it into the 200+whp range with a few more bucks. Stock $1600+ H22 swap would put you in the 170-180whp range.

Question is, Why do you want DOHC?

 

I can do a Euro-R swap for the cost of FI. Piecing togheter a turbokit is far from cheap

 

I kinda want the h23 non vtec dohc swap in my 6th gen and boost it

 

You also live in Holland, Home of the Euro-R. The OP lives in Canada and would need to buy said Euro R swap from an engine importer. They usually run around $1800+ for a long block and $3300 for a complete swap, + shipping. Also you should add the price for miscellaneous tune up parts. Obviously no labour, if the OP plans to do it himself of course.

Approx. $2500 - $4000 I have seen some good strong boosted builds with that kind of cash. Just saying

The Euro R would be a really fun motor for sure though

 

Ok thats true, but 2500 is impossible to build a F22 turbo over here thats why i mention the h22a7. If you want to boost here and you buy everything from a shop, turbokit clutch injectors you be around 4500-5000 dollars ex motor and labour. Btw nice build you have going on stroked f22 itb build is not for the faint-hearted.

 

The Euro Type R can be built to be as good as an actual B18C5 with more TQ. It's, in my opinion, is the best motor Honda made back then.

 

H22a7 is a great engine, but almost every honda engine is. :D B18c5 is a lil bit price over-rated here in holland 3500+ Euro,s for a complete swap is to much in my opinion.
It is easier to just swap a H22a or a H23a bluetop, but i dont know if your are mechanically inclined swapping a engine is much easier than build one.

You can make a F23 DOHC with a H22X head its called G23 just search and you find a couple topics.
