    If you're going N/A, go with the H22. If you're planning on boosting, just get a GSR or D16 (and build it with the extra money).

    Then I don't understand the problem with my answer. It's obviously H22 if he's not boosting. That's also an advisor to not boost an H22.

    Thin cylinder walls, and they really just seem to not like boost. LOL... I mean, by all means, do as you please. I'd just never boost an H22, personally.

    i might do boost in the late future but for now just new headers, plugs and wires, pulley, and intake. when you say boost do you mean just turbo or do you mean supercharge too????????????

    I say B16 A2. h22 is better hands down, but how often do you wanna change axles. Just heard of civic h22 swap tending to do that. More of a straight line car at that point. versatility is something thats more important to me. But whos to say your car wont do this. Opinions are like assholes,everybody has one
