Sorry I was wrong it was the B16 that the H weighs 50lbs more then. But the link is still wrong, caseu the guy on honda-tech did a weigh in with both motors and said the B is lighter by 50lbs.

Grow a wang. I'm not out to get you riceburner, and I'm sorry you don't know how to defend your groundless statements. Besides, I was only asking in case you knew something I didn't.

The guy that only weighed the shortblocks? That doesn't take a lot of the rest of the motor into account. Check out this link: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=879297 The B16 is more than 50lbs lighter than the B18 anyway.

Ok, let's swing back on topic.

To the OP, a H22 won't be anymore reliable than a boosted D if you get it properly tuned (which is about ~500-600 bucks from most professional tuners), assuming the D is in good condition to begin with. The boosted D will be better on gas as well.

I hate when people are begining to grow a mustache, it looks like they have dirt on their upper lip. I call it the 'dirt stache.'

Ok thanks, I was leaning toward the D for some time now, but just want to be sure its what I need. So a good tune and itl be fully reliable then?

Why are you talking? Take your own dirt face talk somewhere else.
