Default H22 swap in Civic SI 99. Hows it handle?

just like the topic i was wondering how the handleing would be in a civic si 99 with a H22 motor?
the reason im asking is because my friend blew his motor in his SI and wanted to get a H22 Motor a Prelude he already boaght the motor but he still wants to know how bad is the handleing

probably crap w/ stock suspension, get a nice set up and my guess is it will handle like a dream.

With a good suspesion setup it shouldnt handle that bad.... Maybe higher spring rates will kinda make up for the extra weight.

i bet if u run the same spring rate front and rear and run a rear sway, it'll feel nice. some 500's and a good sway bar should feel pretty good for track/street.
