i want to know whats the best engine/ecu or anything mod to make me faster other than an h22 or a turbo because im getting tired of my slowness and want either a turbo or h22 but way out of my price range so does anyone have any ideas?

Musulsa

The best mod to go faster is to buy a new car. I am not being sarcastic.

bkmc24

good answer, your gay, i cant go get a new car i dont have that option cuz my dad doesnt want me to so thanks for your "reply". anyone else?

shineynitelite

nitrous

Motohip

^^ Yup, nitrous is the cheapest mod to go fast.

Hobo

stop being a tard, he is right, that car will never be "fast".

nitrous and 17 year olds dont mix well, i wouldnt feel safe using it.

my suggestion, dont waste your money and get a nice sound system, some wheels, tint and a drop.

or get a built h22, gut the interior, and use some FI.

ghost_masterCL

how about nitrous and 19 year olds? lol jk hobo. I'll be 20 in a month and an assistant manager at a blockbuster, everybody thinks I'm 23 so that's nto fair.

how about a shotgun and a 19 year old? that might be safer?

bkmc24

yeah i know hes right but i like my cl and i think its the sweetest i have had yet and i want to make it fast and im planning on saving up for an h22 i was just wondering if anyone bought anything that was cheap and effective and yeah i dont want nitrous lol but thanks anyway i guess h22 it is

if you want that extra push you dont feel when you're stock, then go exhaust... the extra flow of air your engine gets to push out is incredible! I know CB felt alot quicker once i added the new pipes.

of course, it could have also been that I switched from 1.75 piping to 2.25 piping too + magnamuff.

Nitrous.

Motohip

Turbonator.

I heard the V2 makes a difference you can feel.

mrsteve

He already has I/E/P guys, look at his sig.

N20 is the way to go.

Motohip

Oh yeah...what else is there left to do? I don't get what brand any of his stuff is.

agranado

d'oh i should have also mentioned that nitrous would be the quick way to speed up in no time (and blow the engine up in no time as well.)

I'll be doing it soon

I ran the zex 75 shot on my f22 with no probs, except for my tranny went up and that was not related. The 75 shot will definatly give you a little more pull, but for the price of having to fill that bottle all the time, you may want to save and invest your money in a swap or turbo. Realistically when you start spraying, your always going to want that pull, but when your bottle runs out.........................where are you, having to pay another 40bucks to get it filled. Save and go for the gusto, trust me, this h22 I have blows a lot of shit out of the water!!

Meh... just don't spray unless you are racing.

shineynitelite

i heard that if you spray all the time you get better gas mileage

agranado

well if steve's saying it, it's gotta be right. he runs 13's for crying out loud.



I'm caught between a rock and a hard place. I'd like to get a turbo for my f22, but im still not familiar with all the other upgrading id have to do to valves, pistons, etc. that and Im broke like a joke. I would like to do the engine swap to an h22 as well. but, :

Want versus What I can afford. hmm..

but yea, if the cash is there, turbo =

FYI: A properly installed and tuned N20 setup will cost you around $1,000.

Speed isn't cheap.

bkmc24

haha okay take one guess you in high school no money, what ebsite do you go to for cheap shit? lol

Dude, save your money. Your car is slow, and will always be slow unless you spend a few thousand dollars.



[/thread]

bkmc24

prolly will always be slow but i plan on spending money on it so i might as well find out what works well for the money.

and something else ide like to know, h22 or turbo? and for the turbo,whoever has this done, is it worth it or would the h22 be better?

bkmc24

or maybe h23 w/vtec?

agranado

I thought it was closer to 6/700$.

oh well, guess I might as well start saving up now...

turbo will put you around the stock power output of a 2nd Generation CL Type-S.

Invest your money in making the car look nice. A few thousand dollars into a motor swap or a turbo isn't going to get you going fast. Wrong platform for even a mildly fast car.

Keep the paint nice, get a nice body kit, rims, stereo system, etc. You already have an intake and exhaust to stand out a little. Don't waste you money on going fast in a slow car.

bkmc24

well you have a point that insyone is out to prove your wrong so i guess ill save for a while and if he says he runs 13's or lower im gonna try n make mine fast but if not ill have money to make a new car fast when i get rid of the cl

mrsteve

iTrader: (1)

There's a guy in MD who has a turbo 1st gen. He makes a little more power than a 2nd Gen Type-S. Shouldn't be quicker than 14.7 @ 96-97 MPH.

If you'll be happy with that, great.

bkmc24

well im not plannin on making it like way fast and not a road car i want to make it faster and nice

bkmc24

n what does he have done do u know?

lnsyone

kit, colder plugs, fpr, some sort of fuel management, dyno time etc.

lnsyone

Be prepared to cough up thousands of dollars if you want to step up the game because shit is not cheap.

bkmc24

definately have been finding this out and am ready cuz im hoping to be getting full rides from colleges for bball and academics and stuff so ill be able to have a job and get shit for my car not have to pay for school and i dont have aau next summer so i can work either for my dad or someone that works with him and get good money

azian21485

considering the f22 is capable of 260+ whp and 280ish wtq on stock internals...it's not too shabby...tell that guy to get a better tuner or get better equipment =)

capable of safely running 12-14psi on stock internals daily driven..17psi on the track

iron sleeves and 8:8:1 compression = boost friendly

I'd love to show you several slow accords built to be fast cars =)

i say if you have the money go ahead and built the motor...if you don't then just relax until money comes in...but it's not my money so i'm not gonna say anything else

bkmc24

where can i find internals for an f22??

mrsteve

iTrader: (1)

The setup i'm talking about is only 10psi.

And this kid doesn't have the money needed to spend on a turbo.

lnsyone

if youre going to build something, build something worth working with. the f22 is great but what happens when you want more power? 400-500whp will be hard to come around by and will cost a lot of money. to get there

imo it depends what you want for your car. do you just want to FI your car just for some boost here and there? or do you want a street car that produces its maximum potential? think about it that way before you get all these different ideas. itll help you sort things out.

bkmc24

okay, well im thinking about sooner or later, more later than sooner swapping for an h22/3 and going all mototr, good or bad idea for a cl?

azian21485

pistons: weisco or arias can make custom pistons for you

cam: talk to sales@kteller.com..they can get you a custom regrind
rocker motorsports i believe also does cam regrinds
there is one more company that i'm forgetting....also stay away from gude
cam

valves and valve springs i believe ferrara (spelling?) makes them

rods and sleeve i'll get back to you

machining work...hopefully you have some good machinists in your area...otherwise there's a few companies that can do the work for you

<---currently found an interesting thread regarding a h22a crank in f22/f23..has alot of info on building an f series too if you're interested...i suggest visiting that site often as well...but it's an accord site so i dunno how it will sit with some of you guys...run a search there and a ton of info will pop up

google is your friend also =)
