I'm thinking about doing a motor swap in a 90-93 accord. I have a 91 accord right now. The problem is... its an automatic. So... in a few months, I'm going to buy/trade for a 90-93 manual accord. I want to know what is the best route to go as far as engines. I have been doing a lot of research on the h22a, the f22a, etc. I plan to put on a turbo, hopefully planning to run 12-15 psi of boost. Is that a even realistic? How many horsepower gain would that translate to? Also, how important is LSD when ordering a engine/transmission? Any help would be much appreciated.... Thanks

there are a lot of things you must learn.....what's your budget?? And if you're truly going to turbo it, you'd better know that ahead of time....most people say they will but in the end they don't. If i was going to get a new engine and boost it, i would build it first, but that's just me. Until then.....

I am installing a 96 ls auto into a 00 civic auto and i have a question about wiring. Was told by hasport to use civic wiring harness- got most of it figured out but does anyone know how to wire the distributor or have any links to the info? 8 wires to 8 wires but colors do not match - one other thing will I need to use the ls or civic computer? The civic computer has 4 plug ins and the ls has only 3 plug ins. Thanks for any help!
