In the BTCC series, they race Accords(i think its the BTCC). Anyways, they run H22 motors destroked to 2.0L. What are the advantages and disadvantages of destroking a motor like the H22?

Thanks.

 

Those engines are totaly rebuilt and designed to make 300 WHP.

It's in the engineering. I wouldn't be supprised if they had a 10K redline.

EDIT: and to answer the question. Probably for reliability.

thanks.

 

they are only allowed to rev to 8500 RPM max in the JTCC and BTCC.

 

I'm pretty sure that BTCC requires a 2.0L motor. Honda chose to destroke an H22 rather than bore or stroke a B18.

 

Yeap. thats right

 

I'm building a 2.1L H22a......1.65 R/S .99 B/S it should rev high and make some great high end power. There's a thread in the Prelude section on it...
