I think might be wrong bought the tq. They actually put it in the accord a few years ago called the accord si. They sold only a few of them. Too bad they didnt wait. I think todays market would lvoe them.



yup the h22a is the prelude engine in japan. if u decide to swap the engine and keep the car registered better go find yourself a USDM engine. the jdm engines don't have the same emissions devices found in USDM. As for which one is better gor boost the h23 is the better choice: lowr compression ratio, non-vtec. sometimes you get a valve overlap with the h22 and if u plan to boost like crazy gotta get a vtec killer.
