Default F22B Model Engine DOHC Non-Vtec

Ive been talking to some around town Gurus and they say its the way to go if I wanna swap. They were saying everything will bolt up and I can use all my old electrical and ECU even. And since it is a DOHC its going to have a higher compression ratio. And that it can take a considerable amount of boost. What do you guys think? Judging i can get from any JDM site for about 800 shipped and thats with 25-35 thousand on the engine. Just think if i try to find one local.

Well its actually going in a 94 Accord Ex. Well if it has less than 200k on it and it runs, then im ok with that. You have to make the proper preperations when putting any forced induction on a motor (>.&lt. Meaning lowering the compression, upping the fuel consumption, and possibly upgrading on your fire. But Im sure you knew that. Just letting you know that Im not going to throw 15psi on a stock motor so i can blow a headgasket or throw a rod. <- When I crank it. lol

It has a lower compression ratio, not a higher one. Boost that motor, it can take it.

DOHC don't necessarily have a higher compression ratio.

Take the K24A4 vs. the J32A3. The K24A4 is 9.7, while the J32 runs between 10.5-11. J32 is SOHC, K24 is DOHC.
