dude i wouldnt do that... i kno a few people who have done it and regret it. Get a b18 and bore it to a 2.0 then u get more torque but keep the lighter wait on ur car. Unless ur going all darg then do h22

This is one of the main reasons why I'm so excited to get my car... that way when I road race and autocross I can laugh at everyone's faces who says that H22 Eg's can't handle.

what it comes down to is the install if u skimp on the important things then ur car is gonna run and handle like a turd with wheels...my friends h22 del sol was put together by midnightperformance.com his car runs and handle almost like stock he got the lsd tranny and just rips up cars all day long and still gets 30mpg...midnight also does h22 in crx's which only a few shops know how to do right...and if u didnt know no one makes a bolt kit for the crx...but he does it with such good werk it runs like the crx orig has the h22...he built a ef hatch with a stock h22 running 12.5 with slicks and 13.1 with street tires....a eg hatch was doing 13's stripped with street tires...its worth it thinking u have a stock motor and run 13's...just the price tag is a lil higher

I would say get the same OBD as your car came with. But if nothing else, definitely go with OBD1.

listen to poison or eg6turbo, they are right about what to do. get corresponding obd for your car, and for suspension i didnt notice too much difference when i was in poison coupe h22, now a hatch h22.

stiffer springs can help.
