1998 Honda Accord performance!

[CZR]

Yes i know that this a CB7 Fourm, but i figuered i could get the same with a CG, so with a CB7 for an added little boost of power i could just get a ECU from a 91 honda prelude F22 model engine (diff setup on the ecu just plugs in and there you go), i guess my question is, is there anything that easy/cheap mods other than the (headers,intake,exhaust and tranny) mods to gain more power on my 98 accord 4cyl?.

H22 swap. "More bang for the buck." There isnt much aftermarket performance for f23a1. You can do cams, if they make any. Anyways they look nice with the oem lip(front,side,rear).

This is false but made me chuckle.

No an OBD1 ecu will not work on your car unless you modify other things, but no need to jump to OBD1 unless you need a tuneable ecu. Yes they are cams and other aftermarket support for the F23. If you go with anything aftermarket it will require a tune weither its an H or a modified F.

Honestly I would keep the F23A in there, there is a cam for it from Bisimoto as well as pistons and rods. You would need a conversion harness from OBD2a to OBD1 which can be found on several reputable sites like Phearable.Net or Xenocron.Com. If anything, swap an F22A head on there and keep your displacement, you're making roughly 140wtq right now which you wouldn't be making with the F22A stock. I'm not entirely certain on this, but I believe I read somewhere back that the F22A has a smaller combustion chamber, so your compression ratio may jump in the area of 9.8:1-10.3:1 IIRC. That would be an interesting project if I do say so myself. Might be quick enough with some bolt ons to take on an H in stock form.

The P12 is in the 1992-1996 Prelude S.

And he wasn't asking about putting a P12 in his car. He was asking about simple modifications to his car similar to what F22A1/4 guys have with the P12.

all good suggestions, but if i were to do any type of engine upgrade to that extent i would just swap out my 4cyl to a meaner V6 engine but im just looking for little upgrades maybe a manifold spacer, (cams) sound good.

Then the answer is no, so I guess at this point it's either V6 swap or stay where you are.....

At this point you need to ask yourself, exactly what do you want out of your car performance wise in terms of horsepower. My favorite saying is, "You Gotta Pay To Play." You can do I/H/E for roughly $500 or less if you grab some of the Chinese eBay brands off the web, but you won't get the same quality gains that you would from dyno proven research brands. A trans will do nothing, you can get a higher final drive ratio, but you will run out of gear at the higher speeds. You may hang around at the start of the race but once 3rd gear hits(VTEC Shift), they will destroy you. You're at the point where you're either going to "Box Or Throw Rocks". This is what separates the men from the boys in your area's local weekly car meetings, the ones who spend hundreds and the ones who spend thousands. So again I ask that you think carefully on what you want and then we'll help you devise a plan to accomplish those goals.
