how much do you think the h22 swap will cost? I once thought of doing it but after i figured it'd be close to 6k$ I sorta lost interest.

Greddy kits with no internals running 12's reliably? Well considering the D series engines can only handle 200 flywheel HP reliably and that would only get u into the 13's then the person that u say runs 12's on stock internals is lucky they havent blown up their engine yet, but they will soon. I know someone who has run a 75 shot of nitrous as well as i/h/e and a light weight flywheel, with stock internals runs 13.09 on drag radials on a 4th gen stripped Civic. This person is also very very meticulous when it comes to engine tuning and with todays nitrous systems they are almost as safe as a turbo. Unfortunately his engines only lasts about a year at the most, depending on how much he uses his nitrous. D series just wont stand up to much over 200 HP on stock internals for very long, thats all there is to it.
Well as far as the price goes well it can range from 4400 to about 6000 depending on many factors. I am prepared to pay that and then some. I will be adding lots of extras like, 16" OZ Superleggras, Quaife LSD, DC sports 4-2-1 header, magnaflow exhaust with cat, cam gears, intake, fuel pump, coilovers, front and rear strut bars, front and rear anti-sway bars, and possibly the Apexi Super VTEC AFC-2, just to name a few mods...
