theres little to no difference in terms of handling ?? what are you guys talking about ?? h22 swap ive only seen one and he loves it. he does complain about a little understeer (i stress a little). but we drive front enine-front wheel drive cars ITS GOING TO HAPPEN !! most people havent really see or drove one. deejay in port richey has a h22 eg and its doesnt really look that funny any swap looks funny considering that motor doesnt belong. deejays is probaly the fastest honda ive been in period !! it terms of handling some swayupper lower tie bars should do the trick. that thing is so fast when i drove it i had a problem keeping that thing on the road.

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

So a h22 huh? hmmmmm...i wonder what level of installtion that will take ...i wonder if anyone local know how to install one cause the long blocks are only like 2500. thats pretty good. I wonder if the same series trannys fit? I got some research to do now. heh! does the hood even shut it barley fits on the b18cs and that is a bigger engine. hmm...same axles or ones from a accord?Iam not sure?.I just might atempt this and sale my sir2 .

yeah your rightthe wiring looks to be the hardest part and it needs a 92 up tranny (easy) i am sure you know this the mount kit and i think finding a installer would be the hardest of all. It can be done though iam sure the price for all of it and to be finshed is about what a type r motor would be or more. It would be nice to have though.

SO I can assume that a coupe w/ turbo B18c would be very fast? Also who is a good tuner around here that I would be able to consult once i got everything up and going?>
