    i have 90k on mine, and i drive it hard all the time, and sometimes with nitrous
    no problems, IMO f series are great motors, and they have good torque, well, for hondas

    I had 110K on mine when I bought it. It probly woulda lasted me forever, but the guy that owned it before me blew the valve cover gasket and didn't realize it. I slowly lost oil until the damn thing blew on me. I got a new one with 40K on it and have put 25K on it and have had absolutely no problems whatsoever with it. I am about to put a head package on it and possibly boost it if I don't sell the car in a year.

    I think I am the biggest proponent of the f22. had 177k on my 94 before I wrecked it, lost the tranny at 150k. I was very abbusive. i liked mine so much I bought another one for just in case.

    The only thing ive found to go wrong with 5th gen accords is the radiator tends to need to be replaced. At least that is what has happened to my accord and my friends.

    they are very strong motors..perfect for boost. 8.8:1 compression w/ ductile iron sleeves. Im boosting mine 8psi daily driven w/ 150,000 miles i could turn up the boost to 10psi-12psi and daily drive it, but 8 is fine for me.
