    hi guys n guls
    pls leave comments n recommendation, i have a 96 accord, and was wondering what would be the best value for money, either to turbocharge the existing engine or to swap or to swap it for a h22a.
    Thanks

    what engine you have?

    If it were me and i had teh money I'd get the h22a . keep it NA .

    best value... i would say the h22, keeping it na will stop insurance from bugging you... also creates more power than the current engine, and save you from making custom parts up for the turbo in the f22...

    first of all, which model car do u have?

    personally if u wanted to stay N/A, then go H22A, which will prob be cheaper and ur insurance shouldnt be too high.

    but in all honesty, i think boost will give u more power gains, thats if u do the right setup and strengthen internals. however, it'll cost a fair bit and ur insurnce will suck balls.

    you'll be making more power boosted even with stock internals

    keep in mind if you go h22a you'll need to find a 96+ half cut, you cant use an older engine. Not saying these are hard to find, just something to keep in mind.

    The question is, do you want to go NA or FI? The h22a will cost you less, thats for sure. It'll also make less power. If its done right the first time you'll probably have very few problems with it.

    The turbo option on stock internals will cost 3-4k more than the h22a. You'll have more power and a much, much better torque curve. Again if done right it shouldnt give you many problems, but there is the potential for something to go wrong in a big way (ie, destroy the engine)

    Also depends on how much of the work you can do yourself. If you install the h22a yourself then its quite a cheap upgrade (a front cut can be had for 2-2.5k)

    heya, when my car is finally done i'll tell u wat is really worth it.
    in my opinion start with the h22a, then when u've got money do the turbo. works out to be better that way
