yes i have a 97 honda civic hx i am trying to get a h22 Turbo for my car do u think that it would work.. and fit in my car..

 

How much money do you have?

 

it would work...but there are better options. H22 is heavy...but its one really badass motor and its cheaper than the B series motors.

 

hoenstly idk whos going to back me up here.........but if it were me i would do this. Buy a b16 and before u drop it into ur car make it bulletproof, change the timing belt and water pump. Get a stage 2 clutch and a LSD, and then boost the **** out of it. H22 is a TOUGH fit into a civic man. Turboing it aint going to make that any better either. Build the crap out of a b16 and run 10 psi all day on a good tune. Fast, and cheaper than the H22

 

thats what im gunna do with my car...but with a GSR w/ a b16 head.

yeah...H22 is heavy and has a big footprint, it'll take a lot of patience to get into there to work on it, you might have to pull it every time you wanna work on it...but its also cheaper than any B out there

 

These H22 questions are getting a lot more popular lately. Maybe Sac should put an adendum to his Swap Sticky as to what fits in what and how hard it is.

 

I agree. Everyone just needs to read WHY we don't recommend H22 swaps that often before they ask the question. And the reason they're cheaper than B-series VTECs is that they aren't balanced and tuned as well. Interior-wide, they have a longer stroke (not necessarily a good thing to run lots of boost on stock) and the cylinders are a little thinner than Bs.
