Yer the h22 just needs a bit of tweaking that's all and should be pushing more torque The Accord Type r is equal to the Mondeo ST24 bland and just a gimmick the finish and quality of the interior was far off Hondas best and the accord has always been a cheap and cheerful motor, the B18 have always been well made from what I understand of the H22 accord they have a lot of gearbox trouble and big end bearing and Con-rod issues just what I have been told by owners I know.

simpo Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I will sell you my engine for the right price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveolkinevel Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 for the over all cost of buying and fitting a H22 and the gains V Cash you could buy a B18c4 and boost it and have 2-3 times the power and still be more reliable. the H22 is an alright engine however they are prone to the woodruff key shearing in the crank, most do it every 60 odd ish K, it you catch it youl save your lump but its still a new crank, plus i think there quite highly strung as standard so youl be putting big coin in to get power! honestly B18c4 is the way forward, granted everyone does it but theres a good reason for it, my old B18 made 196.4 bhp with just a 4-1 mani derestricted airbox and a P72 ecu!!! for a fast road car knocking on the doors of 200bhp is plenty!

Chandler Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Think I'm going down the turbo route now. Think it's going to be the easier option and will give me the power I want I hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
