I've got a 94 s prelude. is it better to modify the f22 engine in it or drop a better one in. If it's better to drop a better on in what options do I have. The f22 engine Ii have in it right now has 131k. Help me I need some good performance!!!!!!!!!!

 

save up, get an H22A1 and then never look back.

 

well.. look back to see how many car lengths you have on the opposition!

 

damn right.

 

Tose the F22 out and buy a H22 motor

 

Agreed, I love my H22.

 

An old F22 makes a nice foot rest or coffee table

 

well, what is the difference between an h22 and a h23? IF I get one will I need anything else, new tranny, ECU, wire harness,etc??? If anyone else has some ideas please share, I want this car to be sweet11111111

 

H22A1: The most bad *** FWD motor Honda has made. 2.2L VTEC rated at "190hp" but generally had a little higher. This is what you look for when you want to do a phat ride, or a fast *** race car.

H23A: most common found in 4th gen preludes. 2.3L, 160hp that has good torque and a good everyday driver. It CAN be modded to be a beast, but for the most part isn't going to be able to beat an equally modded H22.

 

H22 is the 2.2l VTEC motor, H23 is the 2.3l non VTEC motor. you may as well just buy the whole clip. you can get an H22 w/tranny/ECU from many different places.
jdm1.com to name one.

 

jdm1 wants $2300 for engine and tranny. Is there a place I can get one for less? will I need anything else? And is there a supercharger that will work for my car?

 

Jackson Racing makes a supercharger for the H22, but I don't know if there would be any fitment problems putting it in a 4th gen prelude. But if you REALLY want power, don't even bother with a supercharger, get a turbo.

 

I heard there's a long waiting list for Jackson. What is it, 6 months?

 

$2,300 is about as cheap as it gets for a working H22/tranny, or do you want a real high milage motor to rebuild?

 

Is it better to let honda do the swap or find someone else?
