money isn't an issue i have saved for awhile so not a big a big thing should i go with a b18c5 or h22a can not decide what would be a better motor it is going in a 97 ex coupe civic i would like to run 12 e\t with a na motor thanks Jesse

 

b18c5 only for the higer revs better r/s ratio and better handling in your car. If this not a daily driver h22a all the way.

 

If you plan on just going straight with the car, H22 all the way. If you plan on turning, B18C5.

 

Money no issue? B18C5 + Turbo + sleave and bore and all the other goodies =

 

If money is not an issue why arent you driving an nsx or s2000? instead of 97ex coupe J/k Anyways I was thinking of that too for my swap. They both have there pro's and cons's. The mighty and all torquey H22 will blow away any type r in the straight away but for daily driving purposes i would suggest the GSR! the gsr over even the Type-r?! why you ask well simply because I FEEL with the money you spend on a t-R you can put on a gsr and beat the T-R. i.e. better cams pistons and rods and no i aint talking bout jun or toda too expensive rather skunk or crower i feel still make more power than T-R. Anyways cons on the h22 they say you get understeer but i dont know for a fact but it does sit lower and you cant fit a/c at least not yet cuz i called hasport and they said they were trying to use and older ac condensor from a teggy or accord. but you sounded like you just cared about your et with your goal of 12sec so go ahead get MR h22a and be happy = anyways just my opinion! dont get
