F20b vs H23a vs F22a

[pedroalcala]

Ok guys so I saw an F20b DOHC Vtec(200hp) at $999.99, similar to the H22, then i saw an H23a doch vtec (220hp) at $1099.99, then a also saw lol an F22a (130hp) at $899.00 what should i go for?? or should i just stay with my f22a and boost it? i really want a vtec motor but i just dont know if swaping on these two engines would be worth it.....f20a is pretty good so is the h23 but at the same time the f22 is also good.....what you guys think, let me know because i want to do a swap.....and i need some ideas from my fellow members!!! thanks guys!

keep reading, there are tons of threads about every motor you can think of on this site. The motors you listed are all very different, so it depends on your goals really.

H23a VTEC only has 200PS, not 220PS

my friend is swapping an H23a VTEC complete with tiptronic into his JDM CB6.

h23... you get alot more for your buck. i dont know anything about engines. im just judging by the price.

[rexload]

why would you get another motor when your F22 makes 149.9whp?

well for the fact that i want a DOHC Vtec in the hood, but i might not do it....

x2 the 220hp is a huge myth or dumb miscalculation. eitherway u look at it fact is the oem h23 vtec only made 200ps

yea rite i wish it wud atleast make that at the crank...thats fantasy bro...you aint getin more than 130 on a stock f22ax

yea dats absurd the H23A DOHC V-TEC packs 200 horses and about 2 more ft/lbs than the h22a plus its obd2 itll be time consuming trying to get that thing converted to obd1 but it does look sexier rite?? haha

well thats what it said on the sale list....but i might not do it....i have a low budget right now lol

dude i found an f20b for 500$ dollas just the short block....jus throw an h or f series tranny on that shit...

[bcjammerx]

ONLY 200?

each has potential and only you can determine what you want...

f22 has excellent potential...remember...it's low compression...that hides hp. Up the comp to h22 level and you'll gain some power.

I'm thinking about h23 with serious head work...or just over bore the f22 when I re-sleeve (someday )

that is what the OP had in his signature: 149.9whp F22A

[nusdogg]

I'd go with the H23A DOHC VTEC because of more tq for the JDM SiR Wagon and its rarity.

[MikeW]

x2 on the rarity of the h23 vtec.

And lets not forget "PS" is not a direct carry-over of "HP". 1PS is not equal to 1HP. An engine with 200PS has like 190HP.
