Good day! This is my first post so please bear with me!
I'm interested in installing an H22 into my '92 CB7. My budget is about $1500 - $2000. I plan to buy a longblock and build the engine on an engine stand while I daily drive the CB. I don't plan on boosting the engine, I prefer it NA for reliability concerns.
So, one of my questions: I would like to add any performance modifications while the engine is out but I don't want to spend crazy money. I'd like to stay under $1000 for performance mods after the engine has been purchased. What mods will give me an increase in HP that I can fit within my 1K budget that DON'T REQUIRE A TUNE.. if any exist. (I have a primary question about a tune below, but I would like to weigh my options. I'm intentionally being inconsistent lol)
Next question: Now, I am aware that there are multiple variations of this engine that are characterized by the color of the valve cover. What are the comparison numbers for HP and TQ so I ensure that I purchase the one I actually want. I'd like the one that produces 200hp.
Next question: I would like to completely refresh the engine with new OEM parts. What parts should I replace? I only have all gaskets, rubber, and lines on my list.
Almost there: Transmissions.. So many to choose from.. What transmissions are compatible and can be fitted to the H22 without any fabrication? And if you answer this question, can you please include direct differences in the trannys behavior compared to other compatible trannys? That would help me choose the correct one that fits the needs I want to fulfill.
Final question: Should I get the engine tuned with it being stock? I would think if I was to add some performance mods, a experienced tuner should be able to bite on that and provide some sort of increase? (The usual CAI, Headers, Exhaust ordeal)
If there is anything I missed please feel free to comment. Thank you!!
