Default f22b vs h22a1

I was wondering what would be the better motor to swap in my 91 accord if im going to go turbo. i was kinda of leaning towards the f22b because of price, im wondering if i went with the f22b would it be a good to build and run N/A

If you got the money and time thats a no brainer. H22 for sure. Its a little bit heavier but worth the extra grunt. and it will last alot longer and probably give better hp #s

Definitely go for a JDM H22A motor, get the mid 90s model because I believe they were all closed deck (so you won't need to worry about sleeving the block).

just turbo the f and save cash for the h22a. when your ready for the h22a youll already have all the parts to boost the h22a.

Are the manifolds the same for the H/F series?

The closed deck H22s were a much better platform then any other Honda engine for boosting. If it wasn't such a pain in the ***, thats the route I would have gone in my car.
