I'll take acceleration for 200, Alex

[absolute8705]

I like top speed as much as the next guy but would'nt most people rather get off the line quicker. Can anyone give me some ideas for acceleration for my 93 accord lx coupe with a f22a1? any help will be appreciated.

do you want to know basic mods you can do? Or are you looking for techniques or something...

basic mods

There is a write up somewhere on this.

A good start would be Intake, Headers, Exhaust.

Then maybe upgrade plugs, wires, cap.

You can swap out for the a6 manifold i believe.

More aggresive cam.

That should be a good start

+1. After that you're pretty much lookin into doing internal work & boost. Also, a good thing to consider would be a nice port & polish, and shaving the head.

a bitchin tilton clutch.

for best results...h22 it

H23a1 intake (92-96 Prelude Si), also, F22a6 cam (92-93 aCCORD ex CAM), SRI, Header & Exhaust should get you going pretty nicely. Should be a quick 25hp, maybe a little more.

you want more TORQUE, thats what initially matters the most in acceleration. HP is good but in the upper RPMs.

Longer intake runners will do that for you. So I suggest doing the A6 IM swap w/ an H23 Plenum (top part) and Throttle body. That'll give you more usuable torque and better hwy passing power.

Also Short ram intakes give more torque than cold air intakes.

you could get some nos yo!!!!!



no but seriously u could go nitrous if u want to go faster

Look up my thread on making 30+hp for under $500 here in the Beginner Technical section. I lay it out pretty well.

Other than that, get a good clutch, some sticky tires, and a traction bar setup from ESP (found in the Member Shops section here on the board).


Then all you need to do is work on your driving





An H22, or a turbo setup, will also be very useful... not cheap though, and a bit more involved than bolt-on parts.

Finally, look into HondaFan81's projects. He's doing some pretty awesome stuff with the F22A.

Gearing, the M2F4 transmission from the US 93-96 Prelude VTEC offers the lowest gearing besides the super rare Accord Euro R / Type R trannies. The M2S4 (US 92-96 Prelude SI) has alot lower gearing than your stock tranny too, while not as good as the M2F4 the M2S4 is cheaper to buy and easier to find.
