Gas Mileage with a H22

[Tenji]

Well, I 'm wondering about if you swap in a h22a in our accord. would the gas mileage be the same as if it were in a prelude or lower. One guy with a h22 say he only get 18-19 MPG on the city. How much MPG would a boosting f22 accord get. I somehow only be getiing 20-21 MPG so That why I kinda want to swap in a h22, but I'm afraid it might not even help except getting more performace.

You should get around there like they said if you get either one if you stay outta boost youll be fine. Get the other you should stay outta vtec and youll be fine,drive like an ass and youll know the difference but its not soo major major any time you gun your car and its high performance your gonna burn fuel. Youll notice the difference from stock when your runnin it hard but it wont be a major difference only a little

I didn't notice a huge difference in mileage unless I drive the H22 hard. If you do want a little better mileage with an H22 - keep your F22 tranny since it's geared higher, but its not as much fun that way...

I totally agree with Sparkle. Keep it out of VTEC and don't race every civic you see ( like me ) But don't stress the mileage that much. The fun of having one in kinda overshadows the whole "not getting as good mileage" issue.
