Default '97 Civic Engine Swap B16A2 -> H22A

Wazzup everyone,
Hey, I just bought a '97 Civic EX, which has the stock B16 engine. I want to swap that engine out with the H22A, which I know is possible...
The only problem that I have seen so far is that with the H22 in there is very little room in the front of the engine...

So here is my question. If I swapped in an H22A would I have enough room left in the engine compartment to add a turbo???? Or would there be no room at all????

If you know, please reply! Or email me at antimatter1985@yahoo.com

Thanks!

-Josh

to run turbo on an h22, youd probably have to take out the ac and ps. it would work though.

yup, you'll probably have to ditch a/c, although you can probaby keep ps... You will also probably need to get a thinner radiator fan, or a pusher fan.

:edit: isn't there another thread just like this?:thinking:
