Default Noob Question About the H22a..

Hey guys, Im kind of a noob to the import scene but was hoping you guys could help me. Alright, I drive a 5th gen accord 5 spd... and I was planning on getting the H22a swap.

I want to make my car at least a lil stronger then it is right now and was wondering what parts I could buy that are compatible with both the Prelude Motor and the Accord Motor so I dont have to go through the trouble of selling and buying.

For instance, if I buy a AEM CAI for the Accord right now, will it bolt right up to the prelude? Headers? Will my catback exhaust still fit with the Prelude motor? Thanks..

hey buddy, if you get a 97+ h22 AEM CAI, that will work on both. I have it in my 96 accord and its a perfect fit.
Header will not work, so no need to drop 300+ now.
Some pullies may works since you use parts of the f22 on the h22 swap.
Exhaust will have to be modified at the cat. but not to big of a problem
FPR are ok. anything "universal" will fit, hence the "universal name"

Just buy the Prelude intake now. The Prelude one has a bigger
pipe diamater. The accord intake will not do much on a prelude
motor.
