stay away from this swap,its a waste of time and money,you can do a ls/vtec and make more power and weigh less............

Give me reasons to backup ur thesis.
You don't know how STRONG you are until being strong is the only
CHOICE you have!

you can make more than 220 with an LS/VTEC for the same price as an H22 ($1,800-2,500)? How much would have to be spent to make an LS/VTEC put out that much?
I wouldnt say that.
However:
IF DONE RIGHT, h22s can be pretty fast, but its RARE that i see an h22 beat a GSR/ITR. let me explain...
H22 SWAP
PROS:
Bigger motor, bigger discplacement
More HP than B series (190-200 BHP depending on year)
More TQ than a B SERIES
CONS:
More expensive to mod(forged internal REQUIRE SLEEVING)
Less aftermarket support (not as many camshaft, intake manifold selections)
Less aftermarket support means more money than B series
SHITTY Gearing and transmission (compared to B series) IMO
Dont rev as high reliably as B series IMO
More costly and difficult to swap into a hatch.
i hate shifter cables, prefer linkages
Weigh much more than a B series (80lbs, i dont care what HT says)
GSR/ITR SWAP
PROS:
Decently Priced
Good HP
TONS of aftermarket support (Turbo or NA) compared to an H series
High Revving
Much better transmissions an options as far as gearing, FD, etc
Much easier to swap than H series into a hatch
Weigh less than a H series
Cons:
ITR swap can be DOUBLE what an H22 swap goes for
GSRs cost more than an H series
IMO, i like B > H. you can do simple things like swap pistons for other motors to bump or lower compression. There arent any camshafts like the Pro series or BC cams for the H series, very limited in camshafts in a H motor.
You can buy 4 different intake manifolds for under $250 for a B series, nothing in the H series for that cheap
LSVTEC is good if its a built motor, but if its stock, then i do not advise it. GSRs make the same power and are more realible than a stock LSVTEC.
With the exception of Bees old NA H22, i have NEVER SEEN a h series beat a B series (GSR/ITR) at the track or street races. and i would put money on a B series over an H series any day.

yeh I rather choose b series just because it is true, LOTS of parts to interchange.
