Do a motor swap to a *cough* H22 VTEC...That mod is well worth it, and you won't regret it either...

Yeah, it's a good idea just to round out the i/h/e.

dont expect much....

i had an i/e on my 95 accord and i noticed a gain in the sub vtec range, it was worth the $150 i paid for it. (dc sports ss)

Don't waist your $

I've always heard that a header is one of the most efficient mods for the $. But I would get rid of that short ram & get a CAI. Until then, you'd probably be better off with your factory air box which is not sucking hot air from the engine bay.

if u plan on staying n/a, then it's worth it

i dont think its worth it to put it on an F22...if you ever do an H22 swap it will not fit and youll have to get rid of it.

your car is still gonna be pretty slow...why bother?

I know right? On one of my recent threads, someone said that most people on this forum had the mentality that if it wasn't VTEC or Turbo then it wasn't worth shit. I'm starting to think that's true. It's kinda sad though, I never looked at it that way. I was excited because this was a Prelude forum. All 'Ludes are beautiful cars. Why the diversity? We should stick together! At least we have the dignity & good taste to have a car that not every kid around the block has, you know?

I think all motor cars kick ass, butin reality most are right saying that you'd be better off upgrading to an H23 or H22. A few horse on an F22 isn't gonna give you much, hardly any and that is why we're sayin that. It doesn't have to be H22 or Turbo. It depends on what your looking for, if it's oerformance oriented then yes it is a great idea, but if it's daily driver not planning on track time then don't bother with it.
