H22a Engine problem?

iceiso · #1 10-01-2002, 05:57 PM

I don't know much about cars, but i'm hoping to learn! I often see people say that handling goes to hell when you stick an H22a into an accord. I have a 95 accord EX, how would my handling get messed up? Thanks for any replies!

i don't know about accords having the steering problem, but civics have it big time. the engine is about 200 lbs heavier than the stock engine in a civic, so therefore, you will understeer big time. thats why your handling goes to shit. so in order to correct it a little bit, you will need beefier springs and shocks, sway bars, etc. and put 200 lbs dead weight in your trunk to balance it out.

Handling doesnt get screwed up when you drop an H22 into an accord, its only with civics
