Price for swapping H22

[F22B2]

Hello..i have about $4500 to spare...now..i want a H22a transplant...what is the "out the door" price...including labor..parts..whatever it takes to make the swap successful and the car running..what is the price for that? and if you know any place in California that do engine swap..please let me know.
Also i want an auto tranny.

i've seen h22a's for like 2500 from online sites, labor would be in the grand range depending on shop, slap a custom turbo another grand and shit ur out of money

Would you recommend swapping to h22?
Or is there a better / equivalent way to get more power out of the F22?
maybe get turbo for it?

Ya ok so im a newb...but whats the stock engine in the 5th gen accords? Is it the F22?

[No.1_Stunna]

NM, I went and looked it up. And IMO I say ya go for the H22 :yes: . But why would you want an auto tranny?

Yeah, you want an auto? At least get a shiftronix tranny if you don't want manual.... I say take the $4500 and put it towards a downpayment. Not hating on Accords in the least because I drive one but dropping that H22 isn't going to make you that much quicker. There are several guys in Vegas and Cali that will tell you that. Of course, there are the guys that swear by swapping and turbo but I don't agree. Just my honest opinion
