I think a stock h22 in a everyday street car is over rated and over priced for what you get. The younger crowd will love it though :P

---- it, sell your car and buy a fox body mustang.

If I was you I would just finish the 1.6 build but the h22 is a tempting a choice. My brother has an h22 in his EG coupe and its still a pretty fun car even though it is NA. I would like to see what it could do boosted.

i prefer a higher torque than high hp numbers. high hp with low torque is faggish. torque = more fun

Ya and the cable linkages rule



h2b is the only way an h is worth it imo


Its a solid motor and can make more power than is needed. Most people dont go that route just because its a little less used and makes it more one of ---- when it really comes down to it
