AFAIK, greddy and power enterprises make timing belts for the h22a. is one better than the other?

 

Most aftermarket Timing Belts on the market today are far more superior than the OEM counterpart.

So it's up to you to figure out which one suits your need(s).

 

there is very little info out about these and i've searched.... do you know anything about which model here is better? I'll be keeping the stock revlimiter, but running 15 pounds of boost. dont know if that helps any...

you are right. anyone who says that aftermarket belts are better than oem belts without offering any support or proof is just talking out their butt.

Most oem belts have a lot of research and technology behind them while 'johns timing belts' are made in south ohio to just _look_ like oem belts. A timing belt is only supposed to keep the cams in sync with the crank, nothing more, nothing to do with power or boost. If you want a good cam belt, go oem and change it whenever you pull the head (due or according to your power or boost). If you have a valve train that really stretches belts, change your mechanic. The only exception might be really high rpms (+10k) and then I'd start looking at really high-end solutions.

See I've been looking at a nice timing belt and balance belt set, and the greddy's are like 210 shipped. I'll let you guys know how they are.

 

Most dealers sell the OEM for $60-80. Also do a manual conversion. The F22 pulley are interchangeable. I just put a dealer belt on mine and have no worries.
