That's a bit counter-intuative isn't it?
As a performance platform the 5th and later Accords are encumbered with a real "Load in the Pants". They're built for that soft ride, an abundance of cup holders and the obligatory tissue dispenser.
Going with a smaller displacement engine in the Accord would be performance suicide. Not only would your have to spin the ^%&$ like crazy, just to make horsepower, you'd have to mate it to a trans with 6 speeds and geared to let the engine spin.
Some like the H22 (in all it's permitations)
I like the F22.
Now, If I could mate a F22 crankshaft to a H22, THEN I'd be happy.

The F22A series engines respond well to the usual bolt-ons, I.E. an intake, header and exhaust.
- 2.5" - 3" intake tube and quality air filter setup
- H22/H23 upper intake plenum and throttle body
- Camshaft regrind - Depending on what you are looking for, this could also require new valve springs and retainers.
- 4-2-1 header with 2.5" collector
- 2.5" catalytic converter
- 2.5" cat back exhaust
That's a starters list anyway!
