Off topic, but curious what kind of price did you pay for your accord? and what type of mileage was on it? I'm in the market for a 5th gen.

What do you want to accomplish? A little bit of gain is good to get into before going all out, but it's about what you want. If you're going for hp, you could start with the usual bolt on's. Intake, header,exhaust. Suspension wise, different shocks,springs, and while some would say it doesn't do much or matter, I'd say go with upper, and rear lower strut/tie bars. I have them on mine, and I could tell the difference soon as they were on. Handled like it was on rails compared to before. If you just bought it, drive it a bit to see how it is, especially with an h22 in it. That should help you get a better focus on what you want to do with the car performance wise, and keep in mind it's pay now or pay later with what you buy, and the quality of it.

He has an F22B2...there is no 'H22B2'. He mistyped it.

Thanks for the info. I Bought the car for 500 needed a shift linkage, exhaust and a few other things. It came on coil overs and has an intake. The body is rough but I've seen worse. Is it possible to super or turbo charge it ?

I'm sure you can, but you'll have to check the specifics with your motor. You may end up not wanting to with what you have, and go for a swap. There are a few pistons you can use w/out sleeving it, but again, you'll have to research that. As well what's your budget look like, because it gets expensive fast.

Uninc454, you really should try searching first. There is a completely dedicated thread to the F22 in the Forced Induction section regarding turbo'ing it. There are plenty of part lists and builds listed along with some of the power people are making.

Regarding parts, the Accord FAQ has a list of websites that have been used often and have good reviews.
