    F23 vtec

    I have a few questions. Prolly been covered b4, but i didnt see it when i searched. Ok i'm considering swapping for a f23 vtec motor and then boost it.

    What are the whp, tq #'s for this motor?
    How well does it handle boost? and the boost limit?
    And what are the weak points of this motor?
    Last but not least how is the aftermarket support for this motor?

    Well, I believe that the F23 is OBDII, correct me if I'm wrong, so you would have to convert it to OBDI. There are aftermarket parts out there for that engine, but if you want a turbo kit, build it yourself, the one's you can order are in the $3.5k range. I wouldn't personally go with a F23, it's a hastle plus the numbers aren't that much of an improvement over a f22ax motor. 150hp and 152tq with VTEC isn't very appealing to me, but that's my opinion. Try searching for parts online using Google or Ebay and you'll find them. Good luck with the searching.
    Always remember that only you can make your dreams a reality.

    Never forget that your style is all that matters when it comes to your ride, but be respectful to others who don't share your vision.

        And which turbo is better for this motor w/ a stock internals.
        A T28 or T3 60/63?

              why get and obd2 f23 vtec? when you can either
              - get a fresh f22a6 for a fraction of the cost or
              - get an h23 with more power and no hassle with vtec. 160hp and no extra oil lines to run, no extra wires to connect.

                    I was thinking about that aswell. Was considering throwing some oil squiters in there and build the bottom end while i'm at it. Hmm thats really tempting.
