Hey, I was thinking about getting a 5th gen accord and putting a h22a in. Is this a reliable swap(yes sounds very stupid but I heard somewhere that the axles or some part like that tend to go when swapped in a accord)?

shhhh

whispers

:real quick, while no one is here at 3am. .. it is the best swap you can do, there is tons of info. just go to google and type in h22 accord swap. boom.
also check out Accordinglydone.com they have a great tech section. that shows you how to do it step by step.

also look at h22.org

you will hav eno problems. you use accord axels and things will bolt up great
i know

 

reliabilty is based on 3 things:

1. you got to get a good motor

2. you got to have a good install

3. you got to do proper maintenance/not beat the **** out of the engine

when these 3 things are met, you have a reliable swap. the people who have problems have not met these 3 guidelines.

 

thanks for the info guys...

 

yea. the h22 is still a HONDA engine, thsu if you treat it nice it will be nice to you.

 

if the shop doing the swap for you debug all the little sh_t out=good

 

what's the most whp you can produce reliably (spelling) with a n/a h22 daily driven on pump gas?

 

rated at 200-about 180 at the wheel?
edit: and that is stock

nah, is something around 170WHP with intake and header and maybe vafc, look for H22A posts and you'll see the dyno charts, but still 170 WHP is a lot more than maybe 100 WHP that the Stock F22BX has

 

accord swap works well...you will need the header extended if i remember though.

 

yikes, so 300whp n/a is outta the question I take it?
