ummmm ok bottom line CL-S=240hp+CAI=about 250
hatch stock ith h22a=about 185 to the ground +INTAKE=190+EXHAUST=about 198+HEADERS=maybe 210 you will smoke his @SS!!! him win???? thats a bunch of B.S!!!!

A stock H22A (VTEC) makes about 165 to the ground... with i/h/e, it makes maybe 185 to the ground (max!).

The issue here is power-to-weight. For the CL-S, each horsepower needs to pull 14lbs, while for a H22a_civic, each horsepower needs to pull only 11lbs!!

CL-S (3500lbs, 250whp), H22A_Civic(2000lbs,180whp)

 

sorry atlCl I was tripping with engine codes. although I was thinking about putting in a H22 into my car but i bet the wiring harness would be a b!tch(i know it would fit and I think the tranny would bolt up) i just think the wiring harness would be the biggest thing:P
by the time I do the motor swap i figured it would be( if i got a wrecked later model Prelude tear it down bore it, put Forged lower end on it, performance heads, Skunk2 cams, Intake,headers and pipe(i might be cranking 200 or 210 hp)
then the time to take to drop it in probably be in the 7-10 grand ball park
plus anymore for about 20-25 grand I can get a new V-6 Accord WITH A 6 SPEED and it's a new car I still think with a 2003 Accord V-6 i could at least give a a car like mine with a H22 motor(like listed about) a run

 

Bro, the labor on the swap would only be around $1000 and that is on the high end. Get the short block for $1100, ecu for $250, headers for $250 and labor $1000, would only cost you $2500 total and you would be putting down around 50 more whp.

For 7-10 grand you could get the whole swap and put a turbo on it and run 300whp.

 

Right on, Brother!!! LOL

 

what if i raced a big 18-wheeler truck?

those things have lots more hp/torque than a CL-S...

who would win.?

me or the Coca-cola 18-wheeler?

 

You kno it bro...hahahhahha...BTW any pics of ur car???

Editted by Mike. Tone it down...

 

You guys do realize that motor swaps are nearly unheard of in Japan... since Honda offers the high-end motors across all platforms. Only in the U.S. where Honda never offerend DOHC VTEC motors in civics was when swappng became rampant... now Honda offers the Civic Si, RSX Type-S and each motor can be stroked or upgraded while retaining the same longblock... just replace the internals.

 

haha classic amir

 

 

can't have the noobs talking smack to the vets can we matt?

nigga plzzzz..... CLS with header is NOTHING if u wanna play with the big boys.....a FIXED UP civic hB will over lap CLS's big ass..... Z06 has ton of HP and Tor..... i have seen so many Si with turbo smoke z06 like nothing.....

 

he's just a troll.


i wouldn't have even bothered with him but i was buzzed

 

key word "turbo" the hatch with i/h/e AND a turbo would probably do it but the cl would win and that is the bottom line because i know more than you!!!!
