just picked up my car today from the shop. it just got a jdm h22a put into it. dc sports ceramic header. it's definately a step up, maybe 2 from my si . i decided to get on it a tad bit driving it back (still need to break it in though ) but holy jesus does it haul from 4-8k it is straight out ballsy. i love the sound too, oh man, i think i need a new pair of pants. you h22 owners were right, it is a lot better than the si.

that is all, i'm just entirelly intoxicated with joy.

well i plan on doin my h23vtec into a crx myself, it should be fun. and let me tell you, this was no pansy *** vtec like the si's or gsr's, this was manly vtec . i'm so excited and happy i feel high.

 

i know how ya feel.. when i did my b16 swap into my crx, going from a 92hp motor to a 160hp motor with VTEC made me almost have to pull over... thats automotively orgasmic, brotha

yeah, it just wants to keep goin. you get in the powerband and you definitely know where it is. i was impressed...and still am of course i have a couple of goodies that help out a little..

 

well i've got a few goodies that arent installed, i have right now, intake and header on it. i have the exhaust in my room, and vafc on the way. i'm hoping to hit high 13's in the near future with some tuning and some luck.

 

DAMn, are you serious?? I am pretty impressed with my H23. I wish my plans with an H22 didn't fall through. I was trying VERY hard to get an H22 but things just NEVER went right for me the past 10 months so I just decided to have my clutch changed on my H23.
Oh well, I guess I will have to wait.

But a new clutch, DC Sport header, high flow cat, and my BRAND NEW Thermal exhaust should hold me over until then.

 

ahhh, welcome to the world of small engine displacement.

 

it's so nice. it pulls 10x harder than an h23

Yeah, i use to think that my H23 was fast but after having my h22 i almost feel embarrassed that i thought my car was so quick. I love my h22 and wish i would have done it years ago.

AHAHAHA. You are right. I think my H23 is pretty fast too. Man, I wish I could have gotten my H22 now.

 

VTEC YO!

 

Hey stockludesi,

How much did the swap cost all together (not including the header)?

 

so jealous... on the swap though.

 

I thought you told me it was a usdm a few weeks back? Oh well either way congrats.

 

but john, you live close to me, it's an si . i wasn't planning on tellin ya till i raced ya, hehe. but in all seriousness. it's a jdm h22a. it's nice, sounds like a race car since it's running open header. i was gonna go to fab up my exhaust. but i didn't get my check in the mail so i gotta wait a lil bit til i fab up the exhaust and make it sound right. good gawd is it a loud drone at 2500-3000rpms. lol

 

swap total was (off the top of my head) i think 3100-3200. i got a good deal on the header, cy, the owner of the shop bought my old motor/tranny. and discounted that from the header.
