What would be a better engine to swap into a 92-95 hatchback. A JDM H22A or a USDM b18C? I know the H22A has more horsepower, but I am wondering about the extra weight and mods available. Anyone have any time estimates for a gutted ~2000LB hatchback with one of these swaps? Also what are the HP ratings for the JDM H22A and the JDM H22A Type-S. THanks for your help.

 

Depends on what all your trying to do. If your looking for a car to get very fast in a straight line down a 1/4 mile then H22. Looking for car to go fast but can also handle then B18C. I heard that with an H22 in an EG makes the car hard to handle. My boy has a J-Spec B18C (GSR well SI-V in Japan) in his EG and he loves it. It's a bit faster than the USDM B18C. Either way both engines are good choices.

This question has been asked before. It all depends on what you want.

 

I remember some kid with a gutted hatch with the h22 running 13.6 with just intake and exaust.
