more swapping questions
hello, i posted a while ago asking just some basic swap questions. Now i have a couple more...they're kinda hard to explain, but i hope you guys and girls can understand!
alright, i'm trying to get a f22a-h22a engine swap, which is a prelude heart (h22a) into my accord (f22a). the thing i'm wondering, which parts do you i need to buy especially for the prelude? RIght now, i have a Greddy exhuast, and that's it. Can i keep that? What about headers and intake, do i need to buy them specifically for the prelude? Also, this one is kinda hard to get out... When you look at a part, we'll just say headers, under the Greddy site (Not spamming), they say that the product is available for both my 94-97 accord and the so and so prelude. Can i buy the accord ones and will they fit on the prelude? i mean, when a product like that is manufactured for honda cars, are they all generally manufactered and just some honda cars fit them, or do they make them just specific to each car? SO, i hope this got through to all of you. --summary-- can i keep my exhuast? can i start upgrading small things now before i get the big swap (air filters, intake, that stuff) the manufactering thing (can't summarize that) ALRIGHT! i REALLY hope that someone(s) can help me out! (i just got a job) THANK YOU FOR TAKING YOUR TIME TO READ THIS POST!!! |

Here's how I have done it.. I did the swap, the header and downpipe are for the prelude, and the rest of the exhaust is for the Accord seeing that it is an Accord body and the exhaust has to twist and turn through matching the underside of the car. This will have to be custom made where the two meet, should not cost more than a $100 bucks.
Any engine parts need to be for the prelude, except for your intake and those lil universal air breathers. Other parts will fit, such as the Accord throttle body and fuel injectors and a few others, but you will not get the performance of the H22 using the Accord parts as they are limited to the F22's specs. The H22 has higher specs and you should use everything it will give. The power steering will be an issue, as that needs to be custom made as well. I still havent hooked mine up yet as I'm not to worried about it. It only costs about 50 bucks.. Don't worry I had these same questions, and eventually once you know your car and engine, you know exactly what you need.
