Vtech conversion

[visualpoet]

So correct if im wrong. You can turn a f22a non-vtec into a f22a SOHC VTEC?

DO you want the sarcastic answer that makes you feel like a noob, or the honest answer that makes you feel like a noob?


Either way, the outcome is NO, simply changing the ECU and running a few wires will not give you an f22a SOHC VTEC.

Lol thanks man for giving me a straight awnser. Reason of question was because i kinda got confused from reading the post but now i understand.

I was telling him what he needs to do after putting an F23 vtec head on his F22 in order to have the vtec functioning

Sorry about the confusing post

I also noticed that I said "you need an ECU that can control vtec",
To avoid any confusion, I should correct myself: "you need the ECU that was designed for your engine!"
If you don't plan on having a professional tuner TUNE a chipped ECU for your setup, do not run anything besides the stock ECU for your motor!

I guess I'll try to get my hands on an A6 head then. . . . . . .

What do you have in your accord now? F22a4? If you are really looking to save "pesos" you can do the budget a6 conversion. Just go to the yard and find you a wrecked EX or 93SE and take the a6 manifold,ecu and I believe the camshaft is different as well. Some people just say fuck the camshaft and swap just the intake manifold and ecu. You can do this yourself in 30-45minutes time with the right tools.

The butterfly manifold isn't a drastic upgrade but it does feel good when you accelerate and "feel" them open up when you get on it. It doesn't have a v-tec like pull but it's noticeable and you hear a more slight throatier intake noise.

I was going to do this to my sisters 93 prelude S F22a1 but alas it got stolen by some asshole.

if only Vtec was as simple as just going to walmart and buying it.

I have a question for everyone that is downing the F23.

You anyone of you seen flow numbers for the f23? I've seen some dyno sheets that have definitely impressed me even on a stock cam.

I know the F22B1 head flow like crap becuase I've seen shitty dyno graphs and I've seen flow numbers.

I'm gonna boost an F23 when my F22 blows up... IF it blows up. it should make a bit more torque on the same turbo setup. I just don't see the point in F23head on an F22

LOL, i didnt even realize this was a thread about swapping to an f23 head. I only read the 2nd page full of f23 hatred.

I wouldnt do an f23 head swap. More work than its really worth.
