as far as price and power the H22 would be better cuz it has alot more torque and is over 50% cheaper, as far as ease of installation and keeping stock handling characteristics the B18C5 is better cuz you just use the stock B18 mounts(anybody correct me if im wrong) and the H series weighs about 100 pounds more than the B series and as Ive heard the B series weighs about 100 pounds more than the D series, so youd be adding somewhere around 200 pounds in front of the front axle which would even worsen the already not so good weight distribution and cause bad understeer.

well the b18 would be easier to install, but like he said would cost alot more, but in the end could perform alot better with proper tuning.
the h22 will require some modification to fit perfectly into your engine bay but would cost less, and have better HP and TQ numbers from the start.
