It's just as fast (200hp) if not faster and in some cases, its cheaper $$.
heres my take on it .. the motor you choose depends on what you plan on doin with your car and how much money you want to spend on it.. yes gettina b16 or a b18 will b cheaper but you will b faster in a h22.. and yes it is a little more difficult doin a h22 swap but its not imposible .. the only hard part is the wiring which honda-tech has a great write up in the eg section on how to completly swap in a h22 and that you have to get hasport or another similar companies aftermarket mounts and useing different axles... so before you ask your self wha engine you want to buy ask yourself wha do i wanna do with my car then do the home work on every engine in your price range and go from there
