PS- I know you are the "great tuner" and all and run a 12.8 blah blah... but yo, if you are gonna lie, at least use proper terminology... it is "VTEC", not V-Tech... thank you and have a nice day


the jdm h22a has 200ps(197hp) true rating btw, not an over rated USDM motor. with a 75 shot on that motor, you can expect about a second off your time, ive kept quiet about this because really i've seen that the driver makes such a huge difference on this car. my friend is running 14.001@102mph with intake and header on a jdm h22a. no other mods(cam gears at zero, thats it) i wanted to hear his mod list, and i believe it now. pnp, and cams would sink him into the 13's with ease considering he knows how to drive.

as far as comparing accords to preludes, they run the same with the same engines. the h22a's and h22a1's are different. im thinking the h22a1's really have 185-187hp while the h22a's are more like 197-203hp. another guy i knonw has an accord with a h22a and 11.5:1 compression (with i/h/e). he's not running insanly faster than my friend with the basic bolt ons, both are very good drivers.
