Hey guys. Just a quick question. I'm going to be boostin the f22 and I'm looking to grab some head studs but I can't find any for the f22 anywhere. Anybody know where I can find some or can I use head studs from an H engine? Thx

wilp99

im pretty sure you cant. i remember reading somewhere that the h22 has a different thread count.


f23
(12X199)
(12X163)

h22
(12X185)

wilp99

the f22 should be the same as the f23

Only problem is I can't find any F-series head studs, only B, D, and H series studs...

I'm pretty sure you need to get the H23 headstuds to fit in the f22b.
What size turbo are you gonna be running and what are your power goals?

suprachica79

I think im gunna run a T3 .48-.60a/r 57-60trim, looking to make about 250-300whp, with a turbo of that size i think I can do about 300whp at 15psi, but i'll probably keep the psi down to 10-12.

A T3 will be a ton of fun to drive but it might be a little too small if you're looking for 300whp. I'm going with a T3/T04e 57trim with a .48 turbine that is coming straight off of another guy's f22b1 that he had great success with. I'm hoping for around 250whp and I like the fact the T3/T4 will give me the option for more as long as it's not too lagy. Have you done a compression test on your motor yet?

suprachica79

Are you buying BigDaddyVtec's kit on accordinglydone.com? Cause I'm pretty sure he has the same size, I'm not sure yet, I have alot of time to think about it between now and summer of 08 lol I'm thinking about t3/to4e as well, trying to find a used turbo for around $400, been looking at garrett turbo's and turbonetics used stuff, I'm still settling on what size I'm going to get, but like you said, I just don't want a ton of lag... Haven;t done a compression test yet, haven;t really been home much since end of august, I'm going home in a couple days so I'm gunna get some measurements for my tires, rims, and suspension that I will be doing this coming summer to prepare for boosting it the following summer.

Ya I bought Brian's kit, he's picking up the turbo from the rebuild tomorrow and everything is getting sent up here on Friday. It's going to save me a ton of headaches having the turbo, manifold, downpipe, dumptube, and hotside piping already fitted to my car. My set-up won't be going in for awhile either because I got no income right now, just blowing money while away at school.
Be wary if you're looking at buying a used turbo over the internet. If you're going the used route, you're best bet is to look for a local sale so you can check it out in person. It sounds like you have a ton of time to get everything together too, so there's no point in rushing into buying something.

yea i know. but beggars cant be chosers. aftermarket support for the F22 is limited.

suprachica79

yea, very limited I've noticed...If the H23 studs will work with the f22 then that would be a great help
