JDM DOHC F22B Power Ratings

[Pazzword JDM]

Ok, so I know the JDM F22B makes 166 horsepower and 150 lb-ft to the crank, but what exactly does it make to the wheels? Does anybody know? Also what would it make with an ebay header, test pipe, apexi ws2 cat-back, and SRI? One more thing, does anybody on here have a built NA JDM F22B?

[Father Time]

My JDM F22B DOHC made 152.66whp/147.43wtq.

Ebay 3in. intake
Megan header
WS2 Cat back
Delta 260 cams
Maxbore TB/matched plenum
m2a4 tranny (JDM H22)
Bisimoto 8.9lbs. flywheel

Dyno sheet.


JDM F22B DOHC is more like 160hp/147tq I believe.

What do you run in the quarter?

[Father Time]

Never put it on the track. Sorry.

its all good. i just want to know if its gonna give a noticable pull over my f22a6. i am doing the swap because its relatively cheap and im just curious what to expect. take a look at my other f22b threads as well.

Here is a vid of a member that used to be on here (banned now) at the strip.

He ran a F22B DOHC.

why did crzy get banned? i know he was kindof a d bag? he did have a clean car though.

Somethings are just better left unsaid. It happened, Deev had his reasons.

Not trying to be a dick but what's done is done.

It should for sure. This is a dyno of my Accord with what basically amounts to the most powerful combination of OEM parts (H23 IM, F22A4 header, A6 cam, stacked IAB plates, PT6 ECU etc).

i gotcha i gotcha. good enough explanation for me.

hey man i would also recommend an f23a1 swap. i have that motor in my car and it puts down about 150 hp. its a low compression performance engine and it loves boost! it has really strong iron sleeves so you dont have to worry about those cracking and the stock internals can hold up to 300hp

joekt (member on here) has that swap and I RAPED HIM with my DOHC set up and walk him with my single cam.

f23A1 NOT impressive. Performance? nope. Unless boosted like you mentioned.

[wed3k]

just because it is vtec, doesnt mean it is fast, lol.

It is not a performance engine in any way. It is only slightly better than the F22B1. The SOHC VTEC head design is not good for performance. The ports are crowded and poorly shaped. The valve angle is nowhere near as good as that of the F22A.

It has iron sleeves that are not made for boost. It has cast internals that aren't made for boost. It is in NO way a performance engine. Please stop spreading bad information.

The F22A is just as capable of holding boost... and we already have it in our cars. It's cheaper to replace when (not if... when) it blows up, and it doesn't require any special consideration to install.





As for the F22B DOHC, the head is similar in design to the H23A1. Not identical, but the valve angles and port design are probably very similar, seeing as it's a non-VTEC DOHC head of the same era. It's not a poor performer, but it's also not quite as ideal as the F22A, most likely. For a street car, it has plenty of potential. (all this talk about the "ideal" F22A really only means that it'll make race-car power with enough work... most Honda engines can be modified heavily for street use and not leave their owners wanting)

yea, i laughed a little to myself when the f23 was brought up. i know thay they arent the greatest motors and there is no way they make 150 to the wheels. they have a weak vtec and are poorly designed just as the f22b1 sohc vtec motors. im planning on the f22b dohc swap and building it to handle a nice shot of nos just in case. but overall i want a reliable street car that can hold its own when the ricer revs up next to me at a stop light.
