I was wondering what the difference is between the 94 h22 and a newer one. I know 96+ have OBD2. I am putting it in a 97 accord. The other question I have is will my stock motor mounts work or do I have to find new ones.

 

I believe you use the prelude driver's side mount and the rest from the Accord. As far as the 94 Prelude stuff, it's OBD1 which is easier to tune. Your car is already OBD2 so I'm not sure if it would be easier to stick with OBD2 or convert to OBD1.

 

is the motor the same dohc at the later models and skunk2 makes a conversion harness to change from obd2 to 1

 

the 92-96 h22a and h22a1 are closed deck, the 97-01 is open deck

 

so which one would be easier to work with. I am haveing my friends make a cutom turbo for it. Which would be better to work with. His is my first h22 so I don't know a whole lot about it.

 

Go with the 4th gen prelude H22A (92-96). They are closed deck which is a little stronger for boost. I would convert it to OBD1 also so it is simpler to work with/tune. I believe Kteller8 sells OBD2-1 conversion harnesses.

 

thanks for the help

 

yes if you can stick with a fourth gen lude motor

you use your mounts but the driver side of the lude


besides that your good to go.. if your five speed order a harness.. you can get them from 125-200 easy

 

I am doing a auto to manual conversion at the same time with the motor swap.

 

i'm doin the auto to manual conversion too, how much did you get an estimate for??

 

Also, 1992-1996 H22a runs on peak and hold injectors with a resistor box while 1997-01 runs on saturated injectors...

If u convert an engine OBd2-to OBD1 or OBD-1 to OBD-2, you might need to change them..

I am getting the whole engine swap and tranny swap done for 1500. Thanks for the advise on the injectors.
