What Type of engine to i have. (F22a1, F22a4,f22a3?)?

[xplode]

i have a 92 accord lx black. i want to figure out what version of the F22A i have.... because theirs many different ones that im guessing... id appreciate any way i could find out which one i got especially from fizzbob or anyone who knows alot bout engines, even u ztech might know

lol nice paint skillz fizzy
oh by the way xplode.. if u take the intake manifold off an ex or se 4th gen.. and the header.. OEM parts that is.. it will up ur hp a bit..
those are one of the two things that make the difference between lx,dx and ex,se

[xplode]

intake manifold, is that under the heat shield? i dunno alot bout engines so im trying to learn from you guys here, im just the apperance guru

[xplode]

i know where it connects to the throttle the giant rubber connecting tube that has 2 metal things going into it. can you show me a pic my buddy fizz?

[xplode]

you mean the whole stock airbox set up?? <-confused

[xplode]

im just confused what part your speaking of, i know basic eyeballing stuff but by name i dont, if u gimme a region its in il find it. im not lieing im so new to engines, dont know anything

[xplode]

wow. perfect pic bro, ya i got it, the part that connects to the throttle body, after the airbox.. g0tcha thanks alot bro!

Sorry I dont have a h22.............................yet

By the way, exactly what is the diff between a1, a4 and a6... as far as I know difference between a1 and a4 is only ecu, tb, and exhuast manifold and that the a6 only has a lil larger diameter exhaust manifold. I've also heard an unconfirmed rumor that a6's had a lil bit different cam too. Is my knowledge on this correct???

The A6s (91 EX wagons and SE's, 92-3 EX,SE) have a different intake manifold, with a nifty airflow control device. See the link for my total explanation:

Now what are the differences between the f22a1 and f22a4?

[accordztech]

i think its the f22a1 with less HP and torque than the a4.

i think f22a1 has 125 hp or less and 130 torque..

i think f22a4 has 130 hp and 142 torque....fizz pointed it out in a thread to me one time...

i have the f22a4..

[HondaFan81]

yea, the engine specs you mentioned about sound right, an the f22a6 is 140 hp, 142 lb-ft torq.

However, the diff between f22a1 and f22a4 is 5 hp, so I'm guessing it's just the exhaust header design that's diff??

then I think u guyz said the diff between f22a4 and f22a6 is the intake manifold design.

this correct? always wondered. I have two accords one with f22a4 & f22a6

Here's the differences

F22A1 - exhaust manifold is 4-1 and all jumbled together with small pipe

F22A4- a 4-2-1 manifold design which frees up the extra 5 hp

F22A6- Same 4-2-1 exhaust manifold (may have slight differences but bolt up exactly the same), but includes a nicer intake manifold which has a secondary set of butterfly valves that allow more air to be ingested and priduce higher gains. Also in the intake filter box, there's a little flap that opens and allows more air in under certain conditions. If you install an intake, you bypass that, but for a stock air box, it will help produce gains. Between those is where the extra 10 hp comes in.
