H22 on a 6th Gen and JR Supercharger-- will it work?

I figure the 6th gen and the prelude engine bay size should be about the same.
Also, since it is essentially still a Prelude engine, the supercharger should still fit?
I'm not looking for turbo class hp, and I think the supercharger is less maintenance.

 

not unless teh engine bay is significantly different than the 4th and 5th gen.
if you got a pic of the h22a in a 6th gen engine bay you can know pretty quickly if it will fit.
in 4th and 5th gen it wont since the driver side strut tower is in the way of the belt system.

 

and there is not enough clearance between the firewall and the head to fit the supercharger with enough room to clear.

 

The H22 will fit, but getting the S/C in there might be a challage. Why don't you just go boost. The turbo set-up will fit and I think turbo's are better then S/C because if you know have a S/C works you have to loose power to make power ... If you use a Turbonetics T3/T4 turbo they can handle boost upto about 22-25psi and they spool up really quick so you won't have to worry about turbo lag.

A s/c wont work. I have the h22a in my 6th gen and i can tell you the S/c wont fit because it will hit the firweall.

turbo&gt;sc agree
turbo lag will me there, but not a long *** spool
22-25 with a t3to4? stock internal? ah..maybe in hell

 

Heh, if I owned an Accord that could handle 22-25psi, I'd be in heaven.

 

Need to build the bottom and even the top end in order to run that kind of PSI...not to mention a standalone ECU. Its all possible but its gonna cost ya $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

i think that's dumb. the money spent on that could have went to something much better and faster for less.

spending a few $K to hookup your accord with a H22 or going turbo with the F series is one thing. spending $15K or more for an H22 swap+turbo that could handle ~20psi is dumb. unless of course you have tons of money to spend and your other cars consist of an STi, M3, an S2K, a 350Z, an Escallade, ...etc.

 

For enthusiasts its not really about the money...its about the challenge and the love for our cars. If it were always about the money, we'd all have SRT-4's, Camaros, Mustangs...etc. But no, we stick with our little imports and spend 15k+ for the fun of it and for the shear gratification when you are all done with the setup.

All depends on the type of person. You may think its dumb, but others don't.

 

damn KG Accord, every thread i read in the past week that you've posted in has been absolutely negative, why dont you give some encouragement or not post worthlessness?

cause i want a WRX?? i spent on alot of money for my H22 and 5sp swap, i do love it, but for the money it's not a wise investment. besides look how many people have h22 swaps with a turbo or have plans of turbo, they don't last long. eventually you see that you are wasting your time and money. i'm just trying to be upfront and show the negatives of it, something that many people don't look at. if your ok with that, fine, but decide now before your invested too much money and time.

 

What KG is saying is true...to make most all accords run along side a car that is actually produced with a good amount of horsepower is going to be an investment...anyone who has done any decent kind of work on their accord can tell you it isn't cheap...most everyone i've ever spoken too tho has done it for the love of their car, and some others say for the shock value...the shock of beating a WRX or SRT-4 or any other car that is pretty quick stock by a car that isn't supposed to be pulling the way it does is great. But you want best out of the box value, you will either pay up front or make your slow car quick will cost you in the long run. Would you rather pay 30,000 for a car and dump 1,000 into it to make it run 12's? Or would you rather pay 18,000 for a car and dump 13,000 into a car to make it run 12's? Either way, you wanna go fast, you need cash.

Not all of us want to run 12s. Many Accord owners just want something a bit more exciting than stock. 175-200 whp on the street is not really asking too much.

Expensive? Yes. But look at it this way. Many of us knew the limitations of the car, but we bought it anyway. This site would not be in existence if all of us were really that practical.

Everyone is different. I could have bought my brother's friend's(sorry for the tongue tie) used Porsche(he was considering selling it for 17k but changed his mind, he loved the car), but I needed a more practical car. Also, when you live in a questionable neighborhood, you don't want to stick out.

 

I have see a 6 gen accord with a Jackson Racing s/c at 2002 nopi national. The guy said he had to cut the firewall to get it to fit. I don't think that it is worth it. Go turbo!

 

Was that car silver cause he did not have the supercharged on at the car show. He had a turbo setup cause he said it made more power. i will get the pic and scan it in here in a minute.

a turbo H22 Accord is not practical. it is not something i would count on for daily driving. you should have a second car. once you turbo a honda you throw away it's great reliability.

now a WRX is very practical. AWD+turbo+4doors+24K price tag+low 14s stock+reliable=now that's practical

 

I have one better.

4 cyl 7th gen accord.

I'm a honda nut, what can I say.

I'm surprised you haven't sold your H22 accord and bought a WRX yet.

By the way, I'm not a fan of brand new cars(though I own one). Let someone else take the depreciation hit.

i will when i find the right buyer and i'm probably going to wait till 2005 models come out and get a 2004 leftover.

yeah i could get one used, but this a wrx i assume one that is 1-2 years old will be somewhat beat and you can get 3.9% financing for 48-60 months. if it was used i'd be lucky to get 5.9%. i also want a 2004 body style and used ones don't seem to be that much of a deal anyways.
