I am willing to bet, that he has the JDM H22A4 without VTEC. Mad tyte JDM y0!

Nah, for real man. The H22A is a DOHC VTEC engine, so if you reallydo have an H22A, then you already have VTEC. Post a picture of your engine bay and maybe we can help you out a little.R.I.P. Veronica - JDM F20A swapped 2.0 Si wannabe.

You see models at every car show.
But have you ever seen a model that actually takes the car she built to a show?

could it be your vtec isn't wired up right and not engaging , or wrong ecu , is your oil full, vtec seliniod is bad?needing a new project got rid of bagged S10 going back to Honda'sComment

this dude will probably never be back.
He just got a large dose of honda tech from cb7tuner.
I'm guessing if he has an h22a4 he knows its vtec. I'm also guessing that it might not be hitting vtec and he's wondering where to start on the repair. I could be wrong, but either way I doubt he'll be back.

You're not JDM until you have a car built in ohio with tons of bolt ons from ebay.

I agree, I just removed 3 pages worth of flaming.Originally posted by turbomaxx View Post
I suspect the OP actually has an F22A4 and mistyped it, or the Vtec simply isn't working on his H22A4.
Hopefully the OP comes back to clarify this.

The vtec sohc/dohc head swap?
There's many ways to take it.
H22 head swap (some extra work and precautions when performing this though).
I did it on my old CB. Everthing lined up, save for two oil passages. There's info around in here, just search
Or, another route is the F23 vtec head swap.
A lot of folks figure out, that, in the end instead of swapping the H vtec head on, they might as well do the full H22A swap. I've heard of some issues with head gaskets when doing the DOHC on SOHC...never had a problem myself, but I also didnt have the car much longer after I did it originally

your most common answer to getting vtec is certainly by swapping in an h22. It's a prelude motor, dohc vtec. Pulls hard, sounds amazing, still fuel efficient. Serarch around the forum and you'll find more than enough info on what its about, what it costs, where to get them, and how easy it is to install.
Cb7tuner is actually a really great community. We play hard, and no one seriously wanted you to feel dumb. Welcome, and enjoy the community. I haven't owned a cb in years but i still hang around for the people"This truck is 100% sh*ts and giggles."

^I believe so. I hated it. Dad and I did it, and this would've been back in I think around 2004. We had no idea what we were doing, there was almost no information on it back then, write-ups were scarce, and we had to just roll with the punches and go hit or miss.
It leaked oil, with the F22 HG. I had an issue with the H22 crank sprocket, and an issue with the power steering bracket. If I remember correctly, F23 blocks have 55mm main bearing journals, while early H22As measure only 50mm. This has proven somewhat better for the guys who want to go with teh snailz. It would be easier for fitment reasons, imho, to go with the F head swap if you want just a head swap..
Ugh, in the end OP: Full H swap or bust. That's my opinion. Too much of a PITA.

OP If you want Vtec for economy swap in the F23.
If you want Vtec for power swap in the H22.
Head swaps are possible, but it increases the chances of something going wrong, and unreliabilty.
Your best option is to swap a complete engine.
