in the modifying path, u will get more out of a 2.2l then a 2.0l

hmmm so hard to decide ....
Might just get both and slap it in each car lol
if your going down the all motor path, get the h22a. there is no replacement for displacement!!
h22a.... then u can gimme the money you would have saved

Hes droped a h22a into a dc2. Jun also offer alot of aftermarket support for the engine.
h22a without a thought .
6k is simply too big a difference in price. h22a is stronger anwyz .. :S prolly harder to get aftermarket kw out of tho. but an eg with a type S h22a would flyyyyyyy
personally i'd go with a k20a. if both were equal in power but fuel consumption was better in a k20a then that.
like most said already. the k20a is new and def will prob have more after market support then the h22a.
Personally K wins hands down
But there is a 6K price difference which is a lot to consider
I am sure an H22A with mild mods will still hammer in an EG
More so with 6K worth of mods it will be much much quicker than a K
But if you have BIG plans in the future, K would be the winner. And it is lighter too
turbo h22a for 12 k driveaway.

Badhbt had a JDM h22a swap in his dc2. From what i heard, he couldn't be anymore happier with his k20a conversion. It really depends what you're after.
My mates h22a got 300kms out of a full tank, My k20a gets 500kms.
I'm getting bloody 350 out of a tank with fuc-ked tunned b18.
bao would have got more if he tunned it properly as well.
It's really down to the $$$. Like if i had the money, K for sure, but unfortunitly i've spent the extra 6k on ricing, lol.
whereas fuel economy is very important, i hardly think the conversion is going to be done to ensure great fuel economy, if that was the case why would he even swap.
Mate the H22A is a heavier motor, as such will alter the handling characteristics of the car, espcially one that is so light to start with. A lot of people on Honda-Tech have done this, might be worthwile checking that site out.
but a ballsy motor like the H22 would hammer straight line, then the K20 has a 6 speed
hehehe
