Well I've been posting for months now on forums trying to find anyone that has built an F22/23 set-up. I'm primarily concerned with the SOHC Vtec over the non-vtec but I like them all the same.

A bud of mine in Scotland is running an F18 non-Vtec with some port work and seems to be quite happy with the set-up. He has much higher compression then USDM. (UK has better gas.)

Anyway, I've mapped the flow patterns of stock B16A engines vs. Modified D16Z Vtec engines. It would appear that the torque happy nature of the little D' gives it wonderful gains when ported combined with upped compresion (11:1)

Well, then I mapped an H22 wheel dyno vs. an F23 wheel dyno all stock. To my surprise the f23 meet the h22 pound for pound until the h22 exhaust vtec change over. By extrapolating the F23 in the same manner as a modified D16Z assuming same mods. (Head and pistons) It would appear a Modified F-series should produce H22(stock) results at the wheel with little trouble. Figuring parts for a fully build head and piston run around 1600.oo and if you are still reading this you are likely very board. I'm voting for fixing up the F-series.

Anyone know if an F's-stock computer can handle an 11:1 compression ratio? I'll need to know such stupids things while working on building up the Killer F22/23 Vtec street monster, Man ain't know one giv'n the little SOHC F' and props.......dang.....
