Just drove a F226!!

[H22A91CB7]

Man i drove my buddies 93 accord with the f226 under tha hood and it was like heaven..... i am ust to the f22a1 i guess the f22a6 has more horsepower than the f22b because my homie has a 95 cb with a f22b and his wont burnout, but that damn f22a6 burnt rubber like it was nothing...completely stock...Is the h22a more powerful than tha f22a6?? if so i cant wait till i do my h swap

[93accordexcoupe]

yes the h22 has more power but a healthy f22a6 is definately fun

his car has 216k...i guess im just ust to the f22a1...whats the hp difference

[Medikerik]

If I recall correctly an h22 will have about 60ish more hp than an f22, butdont quote me on that...

f22a1 brand new is 125
f22a6 brand new is 140
h22a brand new is 190

f22a6 thats the old engine i had for my EX-R but replaced it with my new jdm h22a and new h22 trans cuz the f22a6 was strong with 236 thousand but trans was goin bad

the h22 is just like the f22a6 up untill about 6000rpm after that... its a whole new ball game

really??? so is the h22a swap even necessary??? why not just get a f22a6, put a h23 intake on it and aem headers

[zigg_1311]

the preferred term is header, because f22a has I4 engine (inline-four) and any inline engine has only one header. im not trying to mean or anything just lettin ya know. A h23 upper plenum matched with the f22a6 runners is a great upgrade. Along with a header and exhaust to back it up. The f22a6 will be fun, but you wont keep up with a h22. Now if you get 2.5 exhaust with a bisimoto st.2 cam, and a h23 trans or h22, i think it would be a great match!

because your not going to get a 60hp gain from just a header, H23 IM, and exhaust.


if you want the H then get it man. dont rely on anyone else's opinion but yours. you'll be driving after all. if you want you can boost the F22a and get that gain if not more for less money

how do i go about boosting

becuase i have that plus more and i still dont beat the H22's. i can keep up with them pretty well and i can hang real close to GSR's.

It depends on your goals. A f22a6 is indeed fun over a a1/a4 because of the butterflies. When those open up it gives the car a little more stronger pull. Now if you had a JDM F22a silvertop, thats a different story. HyphyAccord had one and that felt like it pulled stronger than my old a6. Definitely the jdm compression played a roll too and helped the power since the 140hp a6 was never offered in Japan until the late special edition US Exclusive 2.2i's sedans,coupes, and wagons came out there.

Now imagine a H22a with the same intake manifold stock + vtec on top of that. Just like ^ said after 5400rpm (or whatever your vtec is set at) Stock is anywhere 5400-5500 (V-AFC told me the hi-cam changed at 5430rpm on mine) it's a whole different ballgame.

Putting a h23 intake? or manifold? In reality you won't gain TOO much. But if you want, u can convert your a1/a4 engine to F22a6 specs by changing the ECU, Cam, and intake manifold to the f22a6/h23 dual runner setup.

Don't quote me but people say the a1 or a4? If i remember right had the best oem construction design over the a6.

If you can afford to, go H22a and you will be happy you did. The difference between a single cam a6 versus a h22a is a night and day difference.

with a F22A6 and h23 intake, headers willnot be enough to run with a h22.
A h22 swap will be worth it over a f22 anyday.
