Its direct drop in pretty straightforward. You can use F trans and you just need the ECU. Its plug and play.

First off, what kind of f22b is this?
f22b1, f22b2, or f22b dohc?
f22b dohc is the easiest swap out of the three.
You can use your stock ecu, but it will run like crap. You can run a p14 from an h23, but you will need to wire a knock sensor in your block, you can run a p39, which is the engines ecu, or you can run a chipped p06 with an appropriate basemap.
do some searching, everything you need to know has been covered by me.

Well, do you have access to an F22B DOHC equipped Prelude? If so, then you must be from somewhere other than the US (Australia or New Zealand perhaps?)
The proper ECU for the motor is ALWAYS the best thing to use.
Any other ECU will not have the proper fuel map. It will make you run rich or lean in certain spots, which can cause trouble. It will run, but don't rely on a stock ECU that wasn't made for the engine for long-term use. A chipped and tuned ECU is another story... but you need it to be properly tuned to work properly.

you got it backwards.
the right ecu for an f22b dohc is the p39. p14 is h23.
